Oxford Race 5

450Mtrs (A1)

Stake: $887

MAGICAL GUS (5) missed the hat-trick last start when fifth and beaten 5.5 lengths (27.56) last time at this track. Deserves plenty of respect. ANNADOWN PADDY (4) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish in impressive time. SAVANA PYJAMAS (1) was a last start winner this course and distance taking an A2 in 27.21 in one of the quickest times on the card and clocking a personal best as well. Harder here but expected to feature again. SAVANA AURORA (3) is a last-start placegetter at this track and distance - solid claims again.

Comments

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 2.5 lengths fourth (27.31) at this track. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 1.4 lengths into third over 450m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound second, beaten a nose, last start in an A1 at this track over 450m (27.12). Key runner based on recent form.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when fifth and beaten 5.5 lengths (27.56) in an A1 over 450m at this track. Forgive the lastest result. Solid claims.
