He won yesterday with Winawinachikndina and Micktheshu.
Bellew said on Saturday that $750,000 in funding from the Invercargill Licensing Trust had been confirmed for a $4.75 million equestrian centre at Ascot Park.
The Southland Agricultural and Pastoral Association is advancing $1 million to the project, to be know as Apec (Ascot Pastoral Equine Centre).
The association has sold the showgrounds and recently staged a successful show at Ascot Park.
"We are looking at further funding from the Southland Community Trust to develop a facility for all things equine," Bellew said.
"There will be stabling for 200 horses and the largest indoor area of unimpeded expanse in Australia or New Zealand."
He said the new facilities would place Ascot Park in an excellent position to introduce night racing.
Micktheshu was ridden by Darryl Bradley, who rode four winners at Trentham on Saturday.
He also won on She Noze yesterday.
The late arrival of Bradley and other riders Chris Johnson, Centaine Spittles, Jillian Morris, Jamie Bates and chief stipendiary steward Reid Sanders caused the meeting to be put back one race.
The group was ferried to the course from Queenstown in a helicopter after low cloud closed Invercargill airport.
Spittles and Bates each rode two winners.
