Charles Town Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight

PROUD WORDS (6) is a nine-start maiden who went close to shedding the tag last time when second over 1408m at this track (Dirt). G Almodovar stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Among the leading chances. CLOSE UP (4) has been about the money with nine minor placings from 15 starts this campaign, the latest a solid second over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Likely to feature. PRINCESS BLAME (2) stuck on well when resuming last start to finish second over 905m at this track (Dirt) after showing good early speed. Placed to advantage and can take this out. ZETA JONES (1) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1710m at Laurel, beaten 14 lengths. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
