The 2014 Belmont Stakes Post Positions were released on Wednesday and the race has some of the best horses in the world scheduled to run. The 2014 Belmont Stakes Morning Line Odds for the race currently have California Chrome, who is running for the Triple Crown, listed as the favorite to win the event, which will take place this Saturday at at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.

The race is open to 3-year-old thoroughbreds that weight 126 pounds and will run the 1.5-mile course. The Belmont Stakes is the third and final leg of the US Triple Crown, following exactly five weeks after the Kentucky Derby, and three weeks after the Preakness Stakes. It is nicknamed "The Test of the Champion" and in this race we have California Chrome running for the first Triple Crown since Affirmed in 1978.

California Chrome drew the second post position for the race and is the overwhelming favorite on the morning line. Only Wicked Strong and Tonalist are single-digit odds for this race
