Union Rags - 2012 Belmont Stakes (G1) [02:53]
All trainer Michael Matz wanted was a chance for Union Rags to show what kind of horse he is. Saturday afternoon at Belmont Park, the hard-luck colt got that chance and the result was a thrilling victory over Paynter in the 144th running of the Grade 1, $1 million Belmont Stakes. Coming off a troubled-trip seventh in the Kentucky Derby, Union Rags was brilliantly ridden by new jockey John Velazquez in the 1 ½-mile Belmont, which lost its marquee horse on Friday when Triple Crown hopeful I'll Have Another was retired with an injured tendon. In the Derby and Preakness winner's absence, the crowd of 85811 -- the largest for a non-Triple Crown Belmont and the sixth-largest in Belmont Park history -- made Derby third-place finisher Dullahan the slight favorite in the "Test of the Champion," with Union Rags a close second choice, also at 5-2.

I'll Have Another Scrapped: No Triple Crown for Belmont Stakes Favorite Due to Tendonitis [00:44]
Kentucky Derby champ I'll Have Another's owners were hoping to have another victory this weekend—but that won't happen. The thoroughbred has been scrapped from Saturday's Belmont Stakes, after trainer Doug O'Neill announced the horse was suffering from tendonitis. O'Neill said the horse may have overextended during training and injured one of his Achilles tendons. If the horse had won, he would have been the first Triple Crown winner in 34 years, and the 12th horse in the title's 137-year history. The 3-year-old colt cinched the Kentucky Derby and Baltimore's Preakness Stakes this May and was favored at Belmont. The Belmont Stakes features a grueling 1.5 mile track, nearly 20 percent longer than the Kentucky Derby, and a length not many 3-year-old horses have the stamina for. "I'm bummed we're not participating," said O'Neill, who along with owners and jockey Mario Gutierrez could have raked in large sums of cash with a Triple Crown. "Whoever wins will be a special horse."
