Charles Town Race 4

Maiden Claiming

Prize Money: $28,792

GALLANT CREEK (4) is back after a break of nine weeks. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at his latest appearance over 905m at this track (Dirt). Good effort to kick-off last prep when in the money at Penn National over 1006m. Rates on top and is a great chance to break through. FOX CREEK (6) again failed to feature last start, finishing fifth and beaten 17 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Capable of playing a major role on his best form. CEDAR'S ESTATE (3) finished third last start when fresh from a spell over 905m at this track (Dirt) to make it four minor placings from 13 runs. Has a solid record here with four top-three finishes to his name. Solid claims again. S S ISLAND FUN (1) pushed forward on debut last start and boxed on to finish second over 905m at this track (Dirt). Solid claims.
