Belterra Park Race 3

1M Stakes

Prize Money: $27,216

MR. MELO (4) tackled a better race last start and finished fifth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1207m, beaten 5.5 lengths. That effort followed a win at Churchill Downs (Dirt) two starts back. Can do much better in this more suitable race. ONORE (2) was safely held when fifth last time out over 1609m at Thistledown, beaten 9 lengths. That followed a win at Mountaineer Park at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. WEST COAST CRUISER (1) travelled in a rearwards position and failed to live up to expectations over 1673m at this track (Dirt) last time out when in the market. That followed a good second the run prior. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. TALKSCHEAP (3) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 0.3 lengths away in second over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and will be thereabouts again. Something for the Multiples: MR. MELO (4)
