Charles Town Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
IN THE CLOUD (2) is building towards a maiden win after minor placings at his last two runs, the latest when second over 905m at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.3 lengths. Bueno Nomar Arroyo stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Leading contender. GALLANT CREEK (3) started at $3.50 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 905m. Nicely placed to turn things around. PISTOLIER (6) is a four-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Anthony Farrior. By Girvin from Pistolpackinsenora. Bold showing expected. SUPER BANKER (4) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last start over 905m at this track (Dirt), beaten 4 lengths. Should be cherry-ripe. Placed to advantage and can fill another top-three spot.

Four-year-old colt who is first starter by Girvin out of Pistolpackinsenora. Key runner likely to measure up.
