The post positions for 2010 Belmont Stakes were drawn yesterday and here are the contenders in the post position orders and odds.

There will be no Triple Crown potential this year and Super Saver, the winner of the Kentucky Derby, is not running for the Belmont Stakes.

Kentucky Derby 2010 Winner Super Saver was the favorite to win the Preakness Stakes, but luck was not on his side as he finished in eighth place, luck in fact was Lookin at Lucky who on May 15 became the 135th Preakness Stakes winner.

Trained by Bob Baffert Lookin at Lucky had an awesome race when he finished the 1 3/16 miles in just 1:55:47 just 3/4 length ahead of First Dude.

The other positions were the third place of Jackson Ben, 4th Yawanna Twist, 5th Dublin, 6th Paddy O’Prado, 7th Caracortado, 8th Super Saver, 9th Schoolyard Dreams, 10th Aikenite, 11th Pleasant Prince, and 12th Norther Giant.

Preakness Payouts

$2 Exacta 7-11 $188.60
$2 Trifecta 7-11-6 $2,771.00
$2 Superfecta 7-11-6-5 $17,126.00
