Oxford Race 8

450Mtrs (A1)

Stake: $898

WONKA (1) jumped from this trap and scrambled home to a narrow A1 win at this track over 450m latest (27.80). Key chance again here. LUCKY SEVENS (6) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 1.4 lengths away in third (27.27) at this track in an A1 over 450m. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Hard to beat again. COOLAVANNY STEVE (5) had trap 5 last start and ran well to finish second, beaten a neck, (27.83) at this track. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Can measure up. CUTABOVETHEREST (2) scored last time and can measure up again.

Good performance after taking an early lead to score in an A1 by neck at this track over 450m (27.80). Can make it two on the bounce.

Comments

In top form with a three run winning streak. Well fancied last start won easily by 4.5 lengths at this track (15.32) beating Savana Yahoo in a OR2 on November 16. Comes through a good form race. Looks a definite chance.

Good effort to score last start by 1.3 lengths over 450m at this track in 27.15, beating Savana Bridget. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 450m. Won't find this much tougher. Must be included.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when third and beaten 1.4 lengths (27.27) in an A1 over 450m at this track. Forgive the latest effort. Great chance to atone.
