Belterra Park Race 1 - 6 1/2F Stakes
WILD COTTON (3) looks the one after a clear 2nd at Belterra Park over 1207m last start, and the extra trip suits. SPINNING SPIRIT (1) resumes from a 64‑day break and was 3rd at Turfway Park over 1609m when leading; draws the rail and adds blinkers. DEMETRIUS (2) brings stronger-track form, last seen 3rd at Churchill Downs over 1811m, though first-up off a long spell. ROADSWITCHER (4) has been off 491 days but did place at Albuquerque Downs two back and can be around the mark if forward.

Three-year-old colt by Yorkton out of Dixie Jackpot. Draws barrier 5 with Yarmarie Correa riding for Stephen S. Sandy at 55kg. Limited exposed data, so the market and parade may guide. Can feature with the right run.
