Charles Town Race 6 - Race 6 - Claiming

BOX OFFICE (3) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when third over 1710m at this track, beaten 5 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. MAX FORWARD SPEED (4) finds it hard to win with two victories from 20 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 905m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Makes plenty of appeal. CHASING COLTON (2) had been rock-solid with three placings in a row before finishing sixth over 1308m at this track last start. Change of rider to J D Acosta who has two wins when aboard. Certainly one to consider. FABELMAN (7) finished second two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 4 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 50 day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 9 at this track on January 2 over 1710m, 5 len behind Big Dilemma carrying 57kg at $2.80. Before that came from midfield and won by 5 len at this track December 10 over 1710m defeating Emirates Honor with 56kg at $2.60. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.
