Anticipating Saturday's finale to the Triple Crown season, there are as many humans as there are Belmont Stakes 2026 horses on the regular episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Chris Fallica, who is best known as The Bear on Fox Sports' "Big Noon Kickoff" during football season, leads off the guest list. He also is a seasoned horseplayer who has opinions about how the Belmont will be run. Andy Serling from Fox Sports and New York Racing Association TV offers his analysis of the Belmont and more high points on a loaded undercard Saturday at Saratoga. Trainers Todd Pletcher of Renegade and Powershift, Brad Cox of Commandment and Cherie DeVaux of Kentucky Derby winner Golden Tempo offer their insights to the Belmont. Paddock Prince handicapper David Levitch has tips for the Manhattan-Belmont double on Saturday's card. John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson of Fairmount Park check in with their popular chat segment and throw in their Belmont picks. Sort of.
