Charismatic was a 30-to-1 shot, but he brought home $886,200 when he defeated Menifee by a neck. After winning at the Preakness Stakes, he had to win just one more race to win the Triple Crown, a feat no horse had accomplished in 21 years. No longer an underdog, Charismatic went into Belmont Stakes a 2-to-1 favorite, only to come in third.
