Although open to horses aged three and up, it is older runners that have dominated in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Contested as a handicap <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyrainc.com\/about\/horsemen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">based on NYRA ratings of the horses entered<\/a>, it normally takes place at Belmont Park. The Metropolitan Handicap is a key part of the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival.<\/p>\n<p>Due to a major development of Belmont Park by the race organizers, however, the entire meet moves to Saratoga Race Course for 2024 and 2025. The 2024 Met Mile takes place on Saturday, June 8, as one of the supporting races on Belmont Stakes day.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Metropolitan_Handicap_History\">Metropolitan Handicap History<\/span><\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16017\" title=\"Cody's Wish Metropolitan Handicap\" src=\"https:\/\/belmontstakesbettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Codys_Wish_Metropolitan_Handicap.jpg\" alt=\"Cody's Wish won the Metropolitan Handicap in 2023\" width=\"700\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/belmontstakesbettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Codys_Wish_Metropolitan_Handicap.jpg 700w, https:\/\/belmontstakesbettingsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Codys_Wish_Metropolitan_Handicap-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/>\n<p>First run way back in 1891 at Morris Park, the Met Mile had an inaugural race distance of nine furlongs (1,800m). That was until it was reduced in length to the current distance of a mile (1,600m) six years later. When Morris Park closed in 1904 that paved the way for the move to Belmont Park.<\/p>\n<p>It has with a few exceptions remained there ever since. Aqueduct hosted the race between 1960 and 1967, and it headed back there in 1969 and 1975. Since 1976 it has only been run at Belmont Park, so the Met Mile 2024 at Saratoga will be the first time the race moves upstate and out of New York City.<\/p>\n<p>It was the first of three races that formed the New York Handicap Triple series, along with the Suburban Handicap and the Brooklyn Handicap. Whisk Broom II (1913), Tom Fool (1953), Kelso (1961) and Fit to Fight (1984) are the only four horses to have won the Triple. With the Met Mile and Brooklyn Stakes run on the same day, it&#8217;s now impossible for horses to do this.<\/p>\n<p>John M. Gaver Sr teamed up with Greentree Stable for six victories (1940, 1943, 1944, 1945, 1953 and 1963). They are the winningest trainer and owners in Metropolitan Handicap history. The most successful jockey, meanwhile, is John Velazquez. He has five wins in the Met Mile (1996, 1999, 2010, 2012 and 2014).<\/p>\n<p>Frosted was a notable winner in 2016, when the horse set the time record of 1:32.73 and the record for biggest margin of victory, having won by 14 and 1\/4 lengths.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Recent_Met_Mile_Winners\">Recent Met Mile Winners<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some of the most popular horses in training are Metropolitan Handicap winners over the last ten years. Flightline became <a href=\"https:\/\/paulickreport.com\/news\/flightline-honored-as-longines-worlds-best-racehorse-baaeed-top-turf-horse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the world&#8217;s highest rated thoroughbred<\/a> after following-up on Belmont success with Pacific Classic and Breeders&#8217; Cup triumphs. That shows the Met Mile can still be a path to equine greatness.<\/p>\n<p>Two-time Breeders&#8217; Cup Dirt Mile hero Cody&#8217;s Wish landed the edition before Belmont Park closed for renovation. Here are all the winners of this Grade I handicap from 2014 onwards:<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-table su-table-alternate\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Year<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Age<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Jockey<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Trainer<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2024<\/td>\n<td>National Treasure<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Flavien Prat<\/td>\n<td>Bob Baffert<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2023<\/td>\n<td>Cody\u2019s Wish<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Junior Alvarado<\/td>\n<td>William I.

To that end, the Met Mile and <a href=\"https:\/\/belmontstakesbettingsites.com\/results\/\">Belmont Stakes results<\/a> of the last ten years can help.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back over this period, it&#8217;s hard to ignore the performances of jockey <strong>Ricardo Santana Jr<\/strong> and trainer <strong>Steven Asmussen<\/strong>. When teaming up, they have won the race three times in 2018, 2019 and 2021.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned earlier, <strong>John Velazquez<\/strong> is the most successful jockey in Met Mile history with five victories. The last of these was a decade ago back in 2014. Yet Velazquez has an additional second place and a third spot from nine rides in the last decade.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Javier Castellano<\/strong> is another jockey with a strong record and three wins in total. Two came within the last ten years (2015 and 2020). From six rides over the last decade, Castellano has also had a third.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to other successful trainers, no one has come close to matching Asmussen\u2019s achievements over the past ten years. Todd Pletcher has had one win, two second places and one third, but this comes from a total of 13 runners.<\/p>\n<p>Favorites have done well at the Met Mile, with six wins and two second places over the last decade. The favorite has won the race in each of the last two years, with Cody\u2019s Wish triumphing in 2023 and Flightline having done likewise in 2022. They both came out of Gate 1 when they won the Met Mile.<\/p>\n<p>Low draws have fared well in recent years. Gate 3 produced the winner in 2021 and 2019, with Gate 2 successful in 2020. It should be noted, though, that these races took place at Belmont Park. Saratoga now hosts the 2024 and 2025 editions.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"FAQs\">FAQs<\/span><\/h2>\n\n<section class=\"fi-faq-content-shortcode\">\n    <div class=\"fi-faq-content-shortcode__question\">\n        <h3><span id=\"Where_can_I_bet_on_the_Metropolitan_Handicap_online\">Where can I bet on the Metropolitan Handicap online? <\/span><\/h3>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"fi-faq-content-shortcode__answer\" style=\"display: none;\">\n        <p>Any online bookie that covers US horse racing will provide odds on the Met Mile.
