Charles Town Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Special Weight

CANDIED UP (6) is yet to break through after three career starts. Managed to find the placings at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) two starts back when resuming before finishing seventh over 1106m at Colonial Downs Inner Turf (Turf) last time. Well placed this line-up and might be his day. VIDA (4) went forward last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten 3.5 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. PISTOLIER (3) is a four-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Anthony Farrior. By Girvin from Pistolpackinsenora. Any push in betting should be respected. EL PAPACITO (2) finished a 26 length sixth on dirt at Laurel two back. Switched to turf last time at Laurel Turf over 1106m and again missed the frame, finishing a 13 length eighth. Worth another chance returning to the dirt.

Was at long odds at debut, ran last of 8 at Colonial Downs Inner Turf on July 10 over 1106m, 20 len behind Party Guest carrying 54kg at $45. Cannot enthuse after the moderate debut effort.

Comes off a 41 day let-up. Most recently ran last of 8 at Laurel Turf on June 27 over 1106m, 13 len behind My Captain carrying 54kg at $21.40. The run before that ran last in a small field at Laurel on June 13 over 1207m, 26 len behind Country Bumpkin carrying 52kg at $17.90. Form doesn't read well but he is a genuine chance.
