Acorn has been Belmont Day constant since mid-90's. Tried on Memorial Day '12/'13. Before mid-90's it bounced around throughout May.

Mother Goose 1-1/16 miles in 1957-58, 1-1/8 miles 1959-2009, Returned to 1 1/16 miles in 2010. Started as a Belmont Day (or vicinity) fixture before becoming a late June/early July standard in 1996.

CCA Oaks was 1-3/8 miles from 1919-1941 and 1944-1958; 1-1/4 miles 1990-1997 and 2004-2009; 1-1/2 miles 1942-1943, 1971-1989 & 1998-2003; Since 2010 when moved to Saratoga, 1-1/8 miles. Had been run late June/early July until transitioning to late July in mid-90's.

These 3 were the original Triple Tiara (1957-2002; 2007-2009); From 2003-2006, the Tiara was configured as the Goose, Oaks and Alabama.

Alabama, 10f since 1917 and a mid-August staple since its' inception, was initially 9f (1872-1916 more or less) with runnings at 8.5f and 12.5f a few times as well as once on the turf (1903).
looking at the winners, and fields since 2010 it seems like its a touch below the CC Oaks and Alabama.
