Charles Town Race 2 - Race 2 - Starter Optional Claiming

JUBA'S NOTION (1) was a determined winner two back then raced on the speed last time before finishing fifth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Should be prominent from the outset. Best form puts him right in this. YANKEE DOODLE KID (3) led throughout last time over 1408m at this track (Dirt) and scored a comfortable win. Should be ridden positively again and should prove tough to beat. LOGSTRADAMUS (6) proved too strong last start and scored by 2.75 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Has six wins here. Should be poised just off the lead. Will be in this for a long way. ROCKET APPEAL (2) was prominent at the bend and finished second last time over 1308m at this track (Dirt), beaten 2.75 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Nicely placed to play a role in the finish.

The start before that won by a 0.3 len at this track May 16 over 1408m defeating Road Minister carrying 57kg at $1.70. Capable of a better run.
