'Fournette' wins come-from-behind horse race at Belmont Park
Leonard Fournette officially welcomed a new member to his family Friday.
The horse named “Fournette” won its race today at Belmont Park in remarkable come-from-behind fashion. The horse was listed at 14-to-1 odds to win the race.
We cannot confirm, however, if the horse that was neck-and-neck with Fournette was named Chubb.
