Default What was the largest field size in Belmont for Triple Crown winner?

Secretariat beat four other horses, right?

I don't have access to the stats from here in work, but was wondering what the largest field size was that past Triple Crown winners had beaten to get the win?

And how will Saturday's rank in that regard...?

CC just pulled the 2 hole, I think he goes for the lead and tries to control the pace, and I think The CC triple Crown will collapse in the stretch, and Wicked Strong , closes the strongest and takes The Belmont...
