Belterra Park Race 3

6 1/2f Stakes

Prize Money: $29,707

TAP THE CARD JACK (4) recorded a strong maiden win over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time, getting there by 9 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a key runner. TOM'S AVATAR (2) was returning from a 200-day layoff last start but he came to grief at Thistledown. Capable of testing this on his best figures. TAP THE WIND (3) finds it hard to win with just one success from 12 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 1106m at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. SKYTREE (5) has not appeared since he won over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) on October 23. Can make his presence felt.

Most recently ran last in a small field at this track on May 21 over 1609m, 14 len behind Haley's Dante carrying 54.5kg at $13.40. The start before that ran second last in a small field at Thistledown on April 29 over 1106m, 9 len behind Sheltowees Rocket with 53kg at $41.60. Mediocre effort last start but is capable of better.
