Charles Town picks and analysis: March 1, 2025

Picks and analysis for this evening’s card from Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races:

RACE 1

4. Just a Rainbow	Last couple aren’t great but may have a bit more upside than main rival
2. Millie Jean	Beaten favorite when finishing ahead of top choice in latest; rider Cruz might send this one right to the front and play “catch me if you can”
5. B’ Etat	Modestly bred firster’s last couple of works look ok

RACE 2

3. True Blue Pearl	Draw a line through two back, and most of this one’s recent starts should be enough; has tactical speed
7. Bonnie Bluetooth	Tepid recent tries but has better to run back to
1. Matoula	Deiter barn having a productive meet; first start of the season

RACE 3

5. Iceteca	Took a while but finally broke his maiden in latest; kept better company when last seen over the local strip
8. Singularity	Outran long odds in first try versus winners
2. Jay	First start in the Farrior barn (28% 1st in barn) for a runner who’s kind of an all-or-nothing proposition; might go straight to the front, and best wins here

RACE 4

1. Full of Charm	Drops in for a tag and stretches out to preferred two-turn trip in second off the bench; could control up front
5. Malibu Years	Best efforts contend
3. Look Ahead	Lightly raced sort stretches out from one-turn dash; prior two-turn try was poor, but if she can carry her speed, she contends

RACE 5

4. Caffeinennicotine	Latest work seems to suggest this guy is sitting on go after lengthy break; trainer Meehan 3-for-9 with a positive ROI off similar breaks; last-out victory has produced three next-out winners
2. Defiant Giant	In the hunt four straight versus similar; bit of a freshening for a barn that wins 20% off similar breaks
3. John’s Notion	Ran big in latest despite fairly extensive trouble through the first turn; inside middle move to the lead, then resolute in the lane in a race that’s produced a next-out winner

RACE 6

3. Sir Alfred James	Classy veteran returned from lengthy break with an even effort, drops down a step here; any improvement would put him right there
6. Sweet Soddy J	DQed after a positive test in latest; feels like this guy’s been around forever, but he’s only four; return to best would do it
7. Buckin’ Dreamer	Beat similar two back in three-turn event; likely to have company up front if connex send

3. Hot Dance	Rider Acosta deserts other Magee runner, who’s likely to go favored, for this one; bested similar in latest and might be speed of the speed
4. Kristinachrysalis	Didn’t miss by much in latest versus similar in first try in Murdock barn; trainer is 8-for-16 first off the claim
8. Love to Eat	Dominated in most recent visit to CT but note that rider Acosta leaves for top choice; Magee 5-for-7 at the meet

RACE 8

5. Group Eighteen	Drops after unsuccessful outings versus better
