Charles Town Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
RHYTHM 'N BLUES (3) is a four-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Anthony Farrior stable. Finished off last campaign with a win at Laurel (Dirt) ten weeks ago. Hasn't trialled publicly but is in a nice race. Leading prospect. TALKLESSWORKMORE (8) finished second two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 2 lengths as public elect over 1710m at this track (Dirt). J D Acosta scored on him last time and retains the ride. Finds a suitable race and can make it two in succession. BIG JOE B (1) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when in the firing line on the turn before finishing second over 1710m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. DIRECT APPEAL (5) ran tenth at his latest appearance over 1408m at this track, clocking in 8 lengths from the winner. Has solid form at this track with five wins and 16 minor placings from 36 starts. Definite player.
