Peck: Belmont pick three for Sunday, May 24

Race 6: INVENTOR'S GATE (#1) has a decent late kick, but he also has some tactical speed and an inside post, and that should be an edge in this paceless route. ICE CREAM TRUCK (#10) is another who could benefit from the expected race flow (2).

Race 7: ARBITRATOR (#2) is the one to beat off his latest. MONGOLIAN KING (#7) merits respect off his latest. STAR'S RIDE (#10) stretches out for Zito, who does well with this move (3).

Race 8: Going to go with a pair of first-time turfers to upset the favorite, Dreamboat Annie, who enjoyed perfect positioning in her maiden score two back. MAJESTIC JESSICA (#6) and SONORO (#8) have tactical speed and hail from barns that do well with turf sprinters, two hallmarks of horses successful in these types of races (2).

THE PLAY: 1, 10 / 2, 7, 10 / 6, 8 = 12 combinations ($6 Ticket)
