It looks like a three-horse race in the 157th running of the Belmont Stakes on Saturday.

The Belmont Stakes will feature a rare Triple Crown rematch of this year's Kentucky Derby and Preakness winners. Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty will take on Preakness winner Journalism after Sovereignty's trainer elected to skip the Preakness Stakes three weeks ago. Baeza , who ran third in the Kentucky Derby and also skipped the Preakness, will be back for another try against both horses.

Only eight horses are entered in the race, which will be run at 1 1/4th miles at Saratoga Race Course. This is the second straight year the race will be run at Saratoga at a shorter distance. Belmont Park, which has hosted almost every edition of the race since 1905, is currently undergoing renovations.
