Belterra Park Race 6

1M Stakes

Prize Money: $13,178

CREEK (2) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1673m at this track (Dirt), finishing second and beaten 0.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. THUNDERING HEART (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he got a long way back over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fourth. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. ICE MINISTER (4) finished third last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. AMERICAN SILVER (1) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 10 lengths. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Placed to advantage and can take this out.
