Charles Town Race 6 - Race 6 - Starter Optional Claiming

RICK'SWARMHEART (1) returned to winning form last start, scoring by 5 lengths over this journey at this track (Dirt). Has started eight times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Can go on with it. ENGLISH PAINTER (7) has switched yards since finishing ninth five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1710m at Parx. Will be tuned-up for this and is expected to run well. SISYPHUS (8) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when fifth over 1710m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ASCENDANCE (2) finished second last start over 1710m at this track (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run.

The run before that 5th of 9 at this track on January 2 over 1710m, 7 len behind Big Dilemma carrying 56kg at $58.60. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.
