Charles Town Race 1 - Race 1 - Starter Optional Claiming
THANK YA PETE (3) is in top form, most recently recording a win by 0.3 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt) to make it two in a row. Warren Iii Ebow who has two wins when partnering stays on. Expecting a bold showing. MASTERWORK (1) was successful last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt), getting home by 3 lengths to make it three wins on the trot. Beautifully placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. BROTHER CONWAY (5) lines up on the back of a 14 length fourth over 1207m at Mountaineer Park. Credentials hard to fault. MCHALE (4) was comfortably accounted for when fourth last time out over 905m at this track, beaten 6 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up so deserves another chance.

Chasing a hat-trick. Comes here off a 43-day let-up. Last start won by a 0.3 len at this track April 2 over 1308m defeating General Issue with 54kg at $7.30. The start before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a nose at this track March 4 over 1308m defeating Nola Boss carrying 52kg at $6.20. Has the ability to be in the finish.

Last start 4th in a small field at this track on April 18 over 905m, 6 len behind Moonlit Notion carrying 55.5kg at $19.70. The start before that came from midfield and won by 2.75 len at this track March 28 over 905m defeating Go Go Jelly Roll with 53kg at $1.60. Mediocre effort last start but is capable of better.
