American Pharoah to break from fifth post at Belmont (Reuters)

By Larry Fine NEW YORK (Reuters) – American Pharoah, seeking to become the first Triple Crown winner in 37 years, drew the fifth post position on Wednesday for Saturday’s running of the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes and was installed as the 3-5 morning line favorite. Frosted, the winner of the Wood Memorial at Aqueduct with Joel Rosario in the saddle, will start just outside of American Pharoah in the six post and is listed as the second choice at 5-1. Materiality, who finished sixth in the Kentucky Derby, is listed at 6-1 odds in the eight-horse affair at Belmont Park and will break from the eight hole.
