Charles Town Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance
AYE DIRECT (5) went fast early and went on to score by 3 lengths last time out over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. T REX UNION (2) comes here off a break of ten months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 905m at this track. Expect him to play a major role. ROMANTIC WARRIOR (4) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 0.8 lengths over 905m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the bend. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DON'T GET CUTE (1) has not appeared since he scored over 905m at this track on November 19. One of the main contenders.
