Charles Town Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming
NOLA BOSS (6) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 6 lengths when tenth over 1106m at Laurel Turf four weeks ago. Has the talent to take this out. HAPPY JAUNT (7) last appeared eight weeks ago over 1710m at Laurel when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Timothy Shanley stable. Capable of playing a major role. MALIBU KNIGHT (5) turned things around last start and scored by 4 lengths after being prominent at the turn over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. KAZ CREED (3) has not appeared since he finished fifth over 1207m at Penn National (Dirt) on November 19. Now under the care of new trainer Jill Spangler. Among the better hopes.

Comes here off a 30-day let-up. At the latest run scored a big 4 len win at this track May 7 over 1408m defeating Culminate with 55.5kg at $3.80. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 9 at this track on April 17 over 1308m, 5 len behind Pierce Elevated carrying 55.5kg at $5.50. Big chance to make it back-to-back successes.
