Charles Town Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
MAX FORWARD SPEED (10) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2.5 lengths over 1408m at this track (Dirt). In a suitable race and can play a major role. CAMP DAVID (2) finished seventh over 1673m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on January 7. Comes here with definite claims. DON TEQUILAS (1) started at $3 last time but could only manage fourth, beaten 16 lengths, at this track over 1710m. Solid top-three prospect. PIQUANT (3) was well in the market first up from a spell last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt) but was safely held in eighth, beaten 18 lengths. Should be in the finish. Can feature with the right run.
