Charles Town Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
MENINA BONITA (8) finished 8 lengths from the winner in fifth last start after being in the firing line on the corner over 1408m at Laurel, an improvement on her seventh on debut at Laurel the run before. Has the ability to take this out. SPEIGHT HER SIZE (2) made progress last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 905m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ASHLEY H (7) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 905m at this track, beaten 2 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. WHACKY WITCH (3) made progress last time out, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in third over 905m at this track. Likely improver so plenty to like about her chances.

Most recently ran second last of 9 at this track on October 22 over 905m, 18 len behind Doubles Alley carrying 55.5kg at $35.80. The start before that ran second last in a small field at this track on October 2 over 905m, 8 len behind Old Man's Dream carrying 55.5kg at $39.50. Likely to run around at long odds and deservedly so.

At debut, failed to make an impression; 5th of 9 at this track on October 22 over 905m, 9 len behind Doubles Alley with 55.5kg at $14.20. Encouraging signs on debut but this looks a tough assignment.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track on October 22 over 905m, 2 len behind Doubles Alley carrying 55.5kg at $4.40. The race before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at Laurel on September 27 over 1408m, 15 len behind Silver Strings carrying 55.5kg at $6. Worth following up.
