The Belmont Stakes is set to go off on Saturday, taking its place as the third crown jewel of the Triple Crown, after going off before both the Kentucky Derby and Preakness in 2020 due to the COVID pandemic.

Essential Quality comes into the race as the morning line favorite at 2-1, just as he was for his most recent trip in the Kentucky Derby, where he crossed the wire in fourth.
