Latest Belterra Park Free Picks

Belterra Park is not racing today. Below are the free picks from the last Belterra Park card, September 12, 2026.

Race 1

Allowance · 1 mi 70 yd · Dirt

A tight allowance opener at a mile and 70 yards where the TrackWiz ratings tell a clear story — Lightning Speed owns the top figure by a wide margin, but the morning line has Sweet Kylie and the favorite priced closely enough to create a real exotics puzzle.

win3Lightning SpeedML 8/5

Lightning Speed is the class of this field by our numbers, posting an 89.12 TrackWiz rating that sits nearly 14 points clear of the next-best horse. Trainer Timothy E. Hamm sends him out with Laureano Sosa in the irons, and the 8/5 morning line reflects public confidence. At a mile and 70, horses that rate well on stamina and pace efficiency tend to hold their edges, and Lightning Speed's avg speed of 53 — tying for best in the race alongside Cousin Joe — helps make the case.

place1Sweet KylieML 2/1

Sweet Kylie opens as the second choice at 2/1 and owns the second-highest TrackWiz rating at 75.58, a meaningful cushion over the rest of the field. Jockey Yarmarie L. Correa is a recognizable presence at Belterra Park, and the 2/1 price means you're not overpaying for a horse who figures to be in the mix throughout this mile-plus trip.

show4Cousin JoeML 5/1

Cousin Joe is a value inclusion here at 5/1 on the morning line, and his avg speed figure of 54 is actually the best in the field — a stat worth noting even if his TrackWiz rating (60.91) lands in the middle of the pack. Trainer Nancy L. Adams has him in spot, and Eder Luis Martinez aboard gives him a live shot at hitting the board in a race where the top two have most of the public's action.

Race 2

Claiming · 1 mi · Dirt

The claiming mile on dirt features a clear top-rated contender in Neutral Cause, but Councilwoman Jilly lurks as a legitimate second option that could complicate exacta and trifecta pricing.

win3Neutral CauseML 2/1

Neutral Cause carries the field's top TrackWiz rating at 88.54 and goes with Yarmarie L. Correa — one of the more active riders on this card — from the inside post. What stands out is the 13% career win rate paired with a 2/1 morning line, suggesting this horse has a track record of converting in spots like this. Trainer Cody W. Axmaker has him pointed at a claiming mile on dirt, and the speed profile fits the distance.

place5Councilwoman JillyML 5/2

Councilwoman Jilly draws the 5-post and comes in with an avg speed of 54 — tied for best in the field alongside Humor Sense — which suggests she can match the pace demands of a one-mile dirt race. At 5/2 on the morning line and with an 11% career win rate, Brooke Bays has a live mount who should be fighting for the minor awards at minimum.

show1Step LightlyML 5/1

Step Lightly is a show value play at 5/1 morning line, and his 14% career win rate is the best of any horse in this field — a stat that shouldn't be overlooked. Trainer T.R. Haehn sends him out with Perry Wayne Ouzts up, and while the TrackWiz rating of 65.26 puts him third in the ratings hierarchy, that board record suggests he knows how to finish.

Race 3

Claiming · 6 fur · Dirt

Six furlongs of claiming action could turn into a pace duel at the top — Going Streakin and Push My Button both carry elite speed figures and monster career win percentages that make this one of the more intriguing sprint matchups on the card.

win4Going StreakinML 2/1

Going Streakin tops our ratings at 88.54 and brings a 29% career win rate, which is exceptional at any level. Yarmarie L. Correa picks up the mount and will be aboard a horse averaging 55 in speed figures — tied for the field's best. At 2/1 on the morning line, this is a case where the favorite is legitimately the best horse, not just the most hyped.

place3Push My ButtonML 3/1

Push My Button is the most fascinating horse in the race — a 33% career win rate is eye-opening, and that avg speed of 55 matches Going Streakin at the top. Oscar Villarreal takes the mount, and at 3/1, there's solid value here if you think the pace scenario sets up for a closer or if the top pick gets into any early trouble.

show5True ClassML 4/1

True Class brings the highest career win rate in the entire field at 36%, which demands attention even if the TrackWiz rating of 66.91 slots him third. Trainer Hugo Andrade has this horse firing regularly, and Orlando Mojica Jr. is a capable hand over six furlongs. A 4/1 price on a horse that wins more than a third of its starts is worth including in your exotics.
