    SKIP DICKSTEIN THE LONG RIDE Patience helps jockeys navigate But how do riders prepare and race- plan for this uniquely competitive contest the Belmont Stakes’ 12 furlongs staged at a distance that is as unusual to them as it is to their 3-year-old equine counterparts? BY PAUL VOLPONI “You have to do your homework. You have to know where all the poles are.
