Stage Door Johnny Wins Belmont in 100th Stakes Clash
The Greentree Stable colt Stage Door Johnny won the Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park in the 100th running, denying Forward Pass a potential Triple Crown after a season full of chaos. Dancer's Image had sparked controversy earlier with a disqualification in the Kentucky Derby, and Forward Pass had already taken the Preakness. Stage Door Johnny surged from behind in the stretch, finishing the 1 1/2 miles in 2:27 1-5 as jockey Heliodore Gustines steered him to victory worth $117,700 for Greentree owners John Whitney and Joan Payson and a $10.80 mutuel payoff.
