Charles Town Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming

ABOLITIONIST (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1308m. Has a solid record at this circuit. Sure to go well. ED'S PROPHECY (1) went fast early over 1408m at this track (Dirt) when resuming last time and defied all challengers to score by 3 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. MUSICAL ENTOURAGE (8) has strung together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on February 13 over 1308m when he scored by 0.8 lengths. Winning rider Arnaldo Bocachica retains the mount. Meets a stronger field but he is capable of running another bold race. CANDY CONNECTION (4) comes here off a freshen-up of four weeks after finishing eighth at his latest appearance over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Should give backers a sight.
