Bettor's Edge

By Jeremy Plonk

He stole the show Feb. 18 on Southwest Stakes Day at Oaklawn Park when romping to a debut win that pointed him as a late-bloomer for the classics. It was exactly a year to the day that eventual Triple Crown winner Justify had begun his career. But while his ascent proved less meteoric, Intrepid Heart arrives at the final jewel in the Triple Crown with a chance to follow in at least a portion of Justify’s shoes. Sire Tapit has accounted for 3 Belmont winners; trainer Todd Pletcher has 3 to his credit as well; and he’s a grandson of 1997 Belmont champ Touch Gold and a half-brother to 2014 Belmont runner-up Commissioner. There’s a lot of history and talent on the side of this Peter Pan Stakes third-place finisher.
