Charles Town Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance

PLEASENTHANKU (3) has had two runs since a break, the latest a seventh over 1106m at Laurel Turf (Turf), beaten 20 lengths. Has scope for improvement so he looks the testing material. BATTALION LEADER (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1308m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fifth. Nicely placed to get the prize. DORADO (7) could only manage sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1308m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MAYOROFGREENCOUNTY (2) won at this track (Dirt) two starts ago but was below his best at a more recent appearance, finishing eighth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. Something for the Multiples: THE BIG LEP (5)
