Charles Town Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

BENJI STAR (4) continues to race well with a win two back at this track (Dirt) before finishing 1.75 lengths away in second last time over 1207m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Likely to feature. INDY MAGIC (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1710m at Laurel, beaten 7 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can rediscover winning form. CATCH THE HUMOR (8) is racing well, scoring two back at this track (Dirt) before finishing a nose from the winner in second last time over 1408m at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Good record at this journey with two wins and three minor placings from six starts and has to be included. GENERAL ISSUE (3) is a last-start winner a month ago, scoring by 6 lengths over 1710m at Mountaineer Park. One of the main contenders.
