Charles Town Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming

R SPECIAL (3) was in a different class last time, sitting just off the speed before letting down impressively for a 2.5 lengths win at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) over 1207m. Sure to go well again. STILL GRUMPY (5) showed little early dash last start but found the line strongly to get up for second, beaten 0.8 lengths, over this course and distance. Will drift back but is expected to be in the finish again. LOVELY ODDS (1) met with solid support last start over 1408m at this track (Dirt) when sixth, beaten 17 lengths. Well-placed to make amends. LAUGHINTOTHEBANK (2) has been in the money at her last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1408m at this track (Dirt). G Almodovar who has two wins when partnering stays on. Best figures stack up.

At the latest run favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 len at Mountaineer Park April 14 over 1207m defeating Khnum carrying 54.5kg at $2.10. The start before that second last in a small field at this track on March 14 over 1408m, 7 len behind Lucky Bop with 55.5kg at $8.40. Can get the job done again.
