Charles Town Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight
FALCON BLUE (4) is a nine-start maiden who has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1106m at Colonial Downs (Turf). Well placed and should go well again. SHOWPIECE (7) raced once in the maiden preparation when fourth at Delaware Park (Turf) over 1006m back on June 28. Bold showing expected with the blinkers added. TASK FORCE (8) settled in a rearwards position and never came on when resuming last start, finishing sixth and beaten 18 lengths over 1609m at Laurel (Dirt). Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. WILEY WILLARD (10) finished in the placings when a 1.3 lengths second on dirt at Colonial Downs two back but then disappointed on turf last time at Colonial Downs over 1006m when fourth, finishing 6 lengths from the winner. Blinkers go on; among the leading chances.
