Charles Town Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance

ITALIAN SONG (3) lines up on the back of a 11 length third over 1408m at this track. Has the right profile. R SPECIAL (4) broke her maiden last start over 1207m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt), scoring by 5.5 lengths. Big chance to go back-to-back. IVYLEAGUEDROPOUT (7) fought on well for third last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Has a win and two minor placings at this journey from four starts and has winning claims on best figures.
