Charles Town Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

POLICY CHANGE (6) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 2 lengths back in second over 1609m at Colonial Downs (Dirt). Worth noting V Rodriguez goes aboard. Has the class to take this out. CAT FAST (7) finished fourth last time out over 1308m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Race sets up well for him. MARKET WATCH (3) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1308m at this track, beaten 9 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. YORK TAVERN (8) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects.

The run before that 6th of 9 at this track on July 4 over 1308m, 6 len behind Romantic Warrior with 55.5kg at $11.70. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.
