Charles Town Race 1

Maiden Claiming

Prize Money: $18,973

J BELKIN (2) is yet to break through in six runs. Finished fifth at his last appearance over 1710m at this track (Dirt) on February 13. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. CLASSIC MARTINI (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1609m at Laurel, beaten 25 lengths into sixth. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. TREE OF DEM (6) is a 20-start maiden who wasn't far away last time when third over 1710m at this track (Dirt) on February 13. Backmarker who keeps coming. One to consider. SEA SHEPHERD (3) ran below expectations last start, finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1710m. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
