Belterra Park Race 5 - 1m 1/2f Stakes
MUSIC THEORY (4) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 11 lengths when fourth in a 1811m contest at Churchill Downs six weeks ago after being prominent at the bend. Has the class to take this out. TURNBUCKLE (2) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his last appearance at Turfway Park (Synthetic) over 1710m on March 20. Comes here with definite claims. WOLF DAKOTA (1) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1207m at Belterra Park (Dirt) when third, beaten 1.5 lengths. Likely improver so another top-three finish is on the cards. BRAHMS HALO (6) was prominent at the bend and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1207m at Belterra Park (Dirt), beaten 4 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Capable of another bold effort.
