\n It may not have felt like it, looked like it or sounded like it, but the 10th of 12 races Saturday at Belmont Park was, in fact, New York\u2019s jewel of the Trip<\/a>le Crown.<\/p>\n

Though the raucous fans were missing, trainer Barclay Tagg didn\u2019t seem to mind.<\/p>\n

\u201cActually it\u2019s very nice,\u201d Tagg said after his horse, Tiz the Law, rode to victory in a largely quiet scene. \u201cI can\u2019t complain about that. I\u2019m not trying to be a jerk about it, but I thought the quietude was very nice.\u201d<\/p>\n

Usually, trainers get worried about how their horses will react to the huge crowds that come with racing in the Triple Crown. But the coronavirus restrictions put in place this year meant no fans at Belmont Park, giving Tiz the Law a comfortable day to make history. Instead of being met by thunderous cheers as he trotted out of the tunnel, the 3-year-old was greeted by serenity that could have made it just another day at the track.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen [the fans] are all there, your horse gets really nervous,\u201d said Tagg, who came up just short of a Triple Crown with Funny Cide on a rainy day at Belmont in 2003. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just nice to see no commotion for a change. You work and work and work with these horses, and then you bring them over on Saturday afternoon and feel like everything\u2019s falling apart because everyone\u2019s screaming and hollering, stuff like that. Not that it\u2019s not nice. You want to have people who are enthusiastic and all that. Still, from the other point of view, it\u2019s very hard on the horses. It\u2019s just nice to see them walking around the paddocks nice and comfortably. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not against the others, not at all. That\u2019s what makes our horses go. Just for a change now, I don\u2019t have any qualms about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The most unusual of Belmont Stakes days went off without any app<\/a>arent hitches, on a quiet, sun-drenched afternoon filled with face masks, gloves and as much social<\/a> distancing as possible \u2014 the new staples of horse racing in the coronavirus era.<\/p>\n

Winning looked different, too.<\/p>\n

The victorious jockeys and trainers, after posing for a quick picture in a mostly empty winner\u2019s circle, then went to a deck where they stood on taped X\u2019s that were each 6 feet apart for the trophy presentation. Missing from the pictures were the owners, who, like the fans, were not allowed in. But they found their way to celebrate, as Jack Knowlton and his partners at Sackatoga Stables did at Pennell\u2019s Restaurant in Saratoga Springs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s weird, because when you come out of the tunnel, you don\u2019t see nobody,\u201d Tiz the Law jockey Manny Franco said. \u201cThis is the moment we live in right now, so we gotta take it.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
