No doubt Pimlico would follow suit and move the Preakness and VOILA! the Triple Crown is altered.

Putting aside any logistical issues from the weekend aside, after the huge financial success that was Belmont Day 2014, why would NYRA mess with something that worked so well on the racing side? In addition, moving Belmont Day to late June (with a comparable stakes schedule) would likely have an adverse impact on the Saratoga season. Don't fix what ain't broken.
