Charles Town Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming

AZTEC MELODY (1) was impressive last time over 905m at this track (Dirt), scoring by 2.25 lengths. Should camp just off the leaders. Best figures should see her run well. HERE'S A QUARTER (7) did a good job last start to finish second at this track (Dirt) over 905m, beaten one length. Cherry-ripe now. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Expected to feature. CHEROKEE CASTLE (5) raced just off the lead before letting down nicely and scoring a one length win over this journey at this track (Dirt) last time. One of the main contenders. COWGIRL ATTITUDE (2) lines up on the back of a 4 length fourth over 905m at this track. One of the main contenders.
