Charles Town Race 3

Allowance Optional Claiming

Stake: $45,837

CAPTIVATED DRAMA (6) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 0.3 lengths over 905m at this track (Dirt). Finds a tougher race but this looks well within his grasp. HEAD OF THE CLASS (3) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when fourth over 905m at this track, beaten 1.1 lengths. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. IRISH HERO (5) is a distance specialist who was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at Laurel, beaten 9 lengths into sixth after being in the firing line on the turn. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. HEY BOOTS (2) has switched yards since finishing second three weeks ago over 905m at this track.
