Charles Town Race 7

Allowance

Prize Money: $44,790

RAY OF SUNSHINE (9) won his maiden four starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when second over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Generally goes well here. Likely to feature. GIMMETHATSUGAR (1) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track (Dirt) over 1308m. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from five starts and should prove tough to beat. DIRECT APPEAL (2) ran well despite being friendless in betting last time over 1408m at this track (Dirt), finishing third and beaten one length at $20.50. Has a win and four minor placings at this journey from six starts and has winning claims on best figures. WISH ON JUBA (6) proved too strong two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when third over 1308m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Worth plenty of thought.
