Why do you think they moved the Woodward here? No one goes to Belmont.

It is the best track for horseman. The 12F track and the turf are the best surfaces in the world. Ask any trainer and they will tell you they love Belmont.

They also race there more than 6 weeks a year. The best racing day (except BC) of the year is in the fall at belmont. FIVE GRADE 1's on the card on one day.

I hate crowds too. So belmont is perfect for me.

The Woodward was moved for the extra weeks rest before the JCGC. Saratoga doesn't need an extra race to put people in the seats.
