Justify, without a doubt. The undefeated thoroughbred became the 13th horse to win the American Triple Crown on Saturday at the Belmont Stakes, grabbing the hole shot out of Post 1 and never giving up the lead. 

After trouncing through the mud at the Kentucky Derby, bursting out of the gate at the Preakness Stakes and setting himself up for a chance at giving Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert his second Triple Crown in four years, the Apollo Curse conqueror absolutely dominated Belmont Park's 1.5-mile track, cementing his name in racing history with a cruise down the back stretch.

Baffert's other Belmont contender -- long shot Restoring Hope -- surprised out of the gate by sticking in second place before Gronkowski, the European star named after New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski, pulled into the No. 2 spot. But Justify just downright dominated the race from start to finish, at one point gaining a two-length lead, and overcoming a push from Bravazo as he stormed toward the finish line with a triumphant stride and an 11-length lead that will go down in history.

In capturing the Triple Crown, Justify also became the first horse to win the Belmont Stakes out of Post 1 since 2003, capturing his third victory in five weeks after two straight races out of Post 7.

Hofburg, who entered the race as oddsmakers' No. 2 choice, finished in third, while Vino Rosso, a popular Kentucky Derby sleeper, came in at fourth. Here's the full results from the race.
