Charles Town Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

CHRISTY MY LOVE (3) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Laurel. Safely held last time out when fourth over 1207m at Laurel, beaten 6 lengths. Enjoys a drop in grade so she can recapture winning form. ANOTHER CLEESHAY (5) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track (Dirt) before finishing second, beaten one length. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. CLOSE UP (7) dug deep to score two runs back then was beaten 7 lengths into sixth over 1308m at this track (Dirt) last time four weeks ago. Can bounce back to winning form. UNITED FOREVER (4) started at $4.90 last time but could only manage seventh, beaten 11 lengths, at this track over 1308m. Can figure prominently.

Returns from a 36-day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 9 at this track on June 5 over 1308m, 1.3 len behind Entitled Defense with 53.5kg at $9.80. The start before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.5 len at this track May 1 over 1408m defeating Cicatriz carrying 53.5kg at $26.80. Not far away last time but hard to have in this contest.

Comes off a 36 day let-up. Last start got back early 7th of 9 at this track on June 5 over 1308m, 11 len behind Entitled Defense with 56kg at $4.90. The race before that won by 3 len at this track April 9 over 1308m defeating Spirit And Truth carrying 56kg at $3. Cannot be ruled out despite a plain effort last time.

Returns from a 36-day let-up. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at this track on June 5 over 1308m, 1.0 len behind Entitled Defense with 56kg at $4.90. The start before that ran last of 7 at this track on April 30 over 1308m, 6 len behind Slanderous with 56kg at $6.30. Going well enough to take this out.
