Oxford Race 8

450Mtrs (A4)

Stake: $727

SAVANA TALISA (6) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a close-up third then scored by 3 lengths in an A5 last time at this track over 450m (27.48). Up a grade but in winning form and must be a big chance again. CAPT RANKS (3) looks an each-way chance. MONEYGALL ROCKY (4) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (27.62) at this track behind Blackrose Oliver in an A4. Has the pace to be prominent. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from six starts. Key chance in this line up. BALLYVODANE ROCK (2) hit the ground running off an inside draw last start and was never headed (27.66) at this track in an A5 over 450m. Has definite claims.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 3 lengths, last start in an A4 at this track over 450m (27.84). In form but not keen here.

Solid performance after taking an early lead to score in an A5 by 2.25 len at this track over 450m (27.66). Looks a solid contender.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 450m at this track. The recent effort suggests she is a genuine hope.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 450m at this track. Can take this out on the back of that sound recent effort.

Solid effort after taking an early lead to score in an A5 by 3 len at this track over 450m (27.48). Deserved winner last time after finishing in the money three on end prior to that. Can make it two on the trot.
