Sovereignty won the 157th running of the Belmont Stakes, capping off a dominant year for the three-year-old horse, who won the Kentucky Derby earlier this year.

There may be no Triple Crown at stake but the stage is set for two champions to battle it out in this year’s Belmont Stakes.

The Triple Crown isn't in play, but the duel between Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty and Preakness winner Journalism could offer another great race.
