Former Dodgers Outfielder Jayson Werth Co-Owner Of Horse That Won Belmont Stakes

Former MLB player Jayson Werth, who won a World Series with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2008, is a co-owner of Dornoch and said he places this victory 'right up there with winning on the biggest stage.'

'Horse racing is the most underrated sport in the world, bar none. It's the biggest game, you've got the Derby, the Preakness, the Belmont, we just won the Belmont,' Werth said. 'This is as good as it gets in horse racing, it's as good as it gets in sports.'

Dornoch's win extended the streak of a different horse winning each of the three Triple Crown races to six consecutive years.

Dornoch finished 10th in the Kentucky Derby five weeks earlier and did not run in the ensuing Preakness Stakes.
