Charles Town Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Optional Claiming

RICK'SWARMHEART (1) chases a fourth win from his past five after taking a similar 1710m SOC at Charles Town last start from barrier 1, having also scored by 5.3L there on 28 Mar. SISYPHUS (2) was 2nd to him on 18 Apr over 1710m, then led and weakened when 5th on 8 May; a key chance if settling better. ICETECA (5) closed from the back for 2nd over 1710m on 8 May and maps to get a similar run. GRAN ANDREWS (4) was 3rd in that same 8 May race and had won over 1710m two starts prior; consistent at the track. CORONATION TIME (6) led throughout to win a 1710m claiming race on 30 Apr and brings fitness and on-pace pattern into this.
