Charles Town Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance Optional Claiming
PORK CHOP PETE (7) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at Listed level at this track (Dirt) over 905m. Will be handy in running despite the tricky draw. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is a major player. MOONLIT NOTION (4) was sent out favourite last time and scored by half a length over today's trip at this track (Dirt). Is yet to miss the frame in 10 starts over this course and distance. Leading player. CAPTIVATED DRAMA (5) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a third over 905m at this track (Dirt) when he was in the firing line all the way. Nicely placed to take this out. HEY BOOTS (8) did a great job to score by 3.5 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a far better effort. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

At the latest run won by 2.75 len at this track April 11 over 905m defeating Wall Art carrying 54.5kg at $2.50. The race before that 5th of 7 at Tampa Bay Downs on February 27 over 1207m, 11 len behind Fulmine carrying 53.5kg at $22.70. Likely to run around at long odds and deservedly so.
