I like Intrepid Heart, but I'm thinking he just doesn't have enough seasoning for a race like this. Seems like both horses from the Peter Pan would require that the Belmont be run at a pretty slow pace for them to win it?

Sir Winton might prefer a warmer pace. Heart probably fares better with a slower pace. I figure Winston will get the pace he needs and I'll have a mild wager on him.
