Charles Town Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
LILYS BACK (7) returns after 12 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Commenced last prep with a minor placing at Gulfstream Park Turf over 1609m. Well placed and happy to have her on top. STARSHIP POLARIS (6) has been in the money nine times including last start on August 13 when second over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Has a solid record at this track, finishing in the top-three six times. Likely to be in the finish. FALSE WITNESS (5) made progress last time out, finishing 10 lengths from the winner in third when she did her best work late at the end of 1673m at Delaware Park. Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. KELSEY HILL GIRL (3) drifted back and never threatened at her last run eight days ago, lost rider over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Capable of putting that recent failure behind her.

Last start didn't finish the race at this track September 18 over 1408m. The start before that 2nd in a small field at Timonium on August 28 over 1710m, 2.5 len behind Mendelssohn Adi with 55kg at $3.40. Cannot be ruled out despite a plain effort last time.
