California Chrome finished tied for fourth at the Belmont and so the Triple Crown eludes another horse. Tonalist is your winner, as California Chrome got off the rail and stuck behind a pack of horses and never seemed to really catch fire. Commissioner and Medal Count came in second and third, respectively.
California Chrome is now one of 20 qualified horses to not win the Triple Crown, and we wait 37 years now for another chance for a horse to win it all. And the last horse to win the Triple Crown?
Affirmed.
