Dornoch Triumphs in Belmont Stakes at Saratoga

The 17-1 long shot secures victory in a thrilling race, marking the second Belmont win for jockey Luis Saez and first for trainer Danny Gargan.

Dornoch held off late challenges from Mindframe and Sierra Leone to win the 156th Belmont Stakes.
The race was relocated to Saratoga due to renovations at Belmont Park, shortening the distance to 1 1/4 miles.
Jockey Luis Saez strategically positioned Dornoch at the front early, maintaining the lead through the final stretch.
Mindframe showed promise but veered off course, finishing second in just his third career race.
Sierra Leone, the favorite, finished third after a strong but ultimately insufficient push.
