With Justify closing in on a possible Triple Crown, HorseCenter hosts Matt Shifman and Brian Zipse this week took a look back at eight of the most noteworthy attempts of the last four decades. The guys used those editions of the Belmont Stakes to illustrate the rigors of the Triple Crown series while contemplating whether Justify will complete his sweep.

Next week's HorseCenter will analyze the probable field for the 1 1/2-mile "Test of the Champion," give out wagering tips, and highlight the star-studded Belmont Stakes Day undercard.
