Belterra Park Race 5 - 6f Stakes
HALFWAY JOKING (6) did a great job to score by 20 lengths over this course and distance when resuming from a layoff last time out. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. CANNON (4) turned in an eye-catching run over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when resuming last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. A repeat of the latest effort will see him in the finish again. CAMDEN HILLS (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MESS HALL (3) turned in a fine effort to score by 4 lengths at this track and distance when first-up from a layoff last time out. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Most recently 6th of 10 at Mountaineer Park Turf on May 17 over 1408m, 8 len behind Blind Eye carrying 53.5kg at $10.80. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; scored a big 6 len win at Mountaineer Park April 27 over 1207m defeating Sonny's Prize carrying 53.5kg at $15.40. Would rather see in something easier.

Second run back. First-up after two months won by 20 len at this track May 2 over 1207m defeating Iknowyoucanwait carrying 56.5kg at $1.30. Previously second-up 9th of 12 at Turfway Park on February 7 over 1308m, 19 len behind Livehappy carrying 56.5kg at $9.54. Great chance to make it two in a row. Improver with winning prospects.
