Oxford Am Race 8

253Mtrs (D3)

Stake: $704

DEVON SUNSET (3) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (15.71) in a D3 at this track. Can find winning form. SELKER BAY PATCH (1) finds it hard to win but has a consistent overall record, having placed nine of 15 career runs. Filled a minor placings again last time when second (15.89) at this track making it five placings in a row. Leading chance. MELBURY METEOR (2) delivered a moderate run last time when fourth at this track over 253m behind Savana Eros (15.94). Shapes as one to consider. KNOCKGLASS ROVER (6) is likely to have admirers.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 253m in a D3 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow him up.
