Belmont stakes prediction

It has pissed down all day here in the Big Apple, on top of a very wet week, so it will be a sloppy track for sure although it's supposed to fine up Saturday. I am sticking with #5 Orb. Drawn well and won the Derby in the wet coming from well back. My other selections are #2 Freedom Child (won Peter Pan at Belmont also in the slop last month),#9 (Revolutionary, my Derby pick and 3rd in the slop) plus #3 (Overanalyze) & Todd's filly #13 (Unlimited Budget) underneath the exotics. I am leaving the Preakness winner Oxbow out of my top bracket - - reminds me of Shackleford coming into the muddy 2011 Derby after wiring the Preakness unexpectedly and finishing off the board.
