Thu, 06/14/2007 - 04:32

Although the turnout for the 2007 Belmont Stakes was a disappointing 46,870, the results were anything but disappointing. Rags to Riches became the first filly in over one hundred years to win the third leg of the Triple Crown. She ran the 1½ mile race in 2 minutes and 29 seconds (Secretariat holds the record at 2 minutes 24 seconds, run June 9th, 1973).

The filly took home a $1 million purse and paid $10.60.
