Charles Town Race 7 - Race 7 - Starter Optional Claiming

MASTERWORK (8) has been in great form recently, the latest effort a dominant win by 6 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt) to make it four victories in a row. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. WILEY WILLARD (5) turned in a modest performance when fourth last time out over 1408m at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being prominent at the bend. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. BROTHER CONWAY (3) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when fifth, beaten 32 lengths, over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ARAK (1) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 2.5 lengths over 1609m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.
