There been great belmont days and bad belmont days. I attended 40 of the last 43 years of Belmonts.
Have had great experiences and and really, really bad ones.
I am so old I remember attending the Belmont when admission was a buck (2 bucks usually but a dollar off for riding the train. NEVER have driven there. (driven back by friends in 1978). The train is absolutely the way to go. They rebuilt the Belmont Terminal and its great. three thumbs up for the MTA finally getting something right.
Get there early, stay off the ground floor with all the tourists. come up to the third floor and bring food and water so that you wont have to stand in line.
Buy a cash card and bet at self service terminals. Use the restrooms earlier in the day. They get pretty bad around 4 and beyond.
should be a great day and maybe, maybe a TC winner.
