If you don’t think that Big Brown is the lock that many others believe, then you will have huge Belmont Stakes odds on the other horses. Let’s consider Big Brown as the Belmont betting favorite and reasons to bet on him and against him in terms of Belmont Stakes odds.

Big Brown is the deserving Belmont betting favorite because he has dominated every other horse he has ever faced. He has looked unbeatable in all of his races and seems to be able to run any kind of race and win. He has won from the outside and from the middle and distance doesn’t seem to be a problem. It could also just be destiny that Big Brown wins in Belmont  betting. It has been 30 years since Affirmed won the Triple Crown and history says we are overdue for a Triple Crown winner in Belmont Stakes betting.

What about the reasons not to bet on Big Brown in Belmont  betting? There are not many negatives for Big Brown in terms of Belmont Stakes betting. He hasn’t had many races in his career but inexperience seems to be a non-factor. Having Kent Desormeaux as the jockey means the horse will get a smart trip. The only real possible negative for Big Brown in Belmont betting is the quarter crack he suffered. While it has healed nicely, it is a minor concern when a horse is going a mile and half.

That may be the only negative facing Big Brown. Normally you could say that running three races within five weeks would be a huge task but it doesn’t look like Big Brown has even broken a sweat. He was pulled up in the Preakness by Desormeaux to save him for the Belmont. History is meant to be made and there just aren’t any real negatives or concerns that point to Big Brown failing in Belmont betting.
