Belterra Park Race 6 - 5f Stakes
FIRESTORM DANCER (5) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when seventh, beaten 10 lengths, at this track (Turf) over 1609m. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. MEGALITHIC (1) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at Horseshoe Indianapolis, beaten only half a length after being prominent at the corner. Finds the right race this time and can find winning form. OPTIMISTIC INCOME (2) has not raced since he finished fourth over 1207m at Belterra Park on July 31. Senior rider aboard this time. Solid top-three hope. TATTOO (6) was beaten 11 lengths into fourth in a 1609m contest at Belterra Park at his latest appearance. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.

Resuming. Only had one start last preparation ran second last in a small field at Belterra Park on July 31 over 1207m, 18 len behind Durable carrying 56.5kg at $3.60. When resuming last campaign ran last of 10 at Churchill Downs on June 18 2025 over 1308m, 23 len behind Tapakena with 56kg at $8.59. Could prove too smart for these.

Second run back. First-up after a year ran second last of 7 at Belterra Park on September 26 over 1308m, 15 len behind Hitchcock carrying 55kg at $14.90. Previously second-up 7th of 9 at Horseshoe Indianapolis on September 16 2025 over 1106m, 10 len behind Gunzo carrying 54.5kg at $6.30. Improver with definite claims.
