Charles Town Race 8 - Race 8 - Starter Optional Claiming
GRAN ANDREWS (3) is in top form with two wins on end, the most recent an effortless 2.5 lengths victory over 1710m at this track (Dirt) three weeks ago. Has never missed the frame here at this journey in six starts, including five wins. Expected to go very well. MORNING THOUGHTS (5) has switched yards since scoring by one length at Laurel over 1609m on June 6. Expecting a bright start for the new mentor. OZONE (6) lines up for the first time since May 1. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1408m at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect. CORONATION TIME (2) comes here following a win over 1308m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by one length. One of the genuine contenders.
