Oxford Race 8

450Mtrs (A8)

Prize Money: $587

SAVANA RIPPLE (2) followed an A7 win two back with a sound second, beaten 1.5 lengths, in an A7 at this track over 450m (27.78). Back a class and looks the hard to beat on recent efforts. HAVANA SHIRLIE (5) is down a grade after finishing fourth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 450m (28.52). Expected to do much better this level. SPOT ON CHEEKS (3) followed a moderate sixth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 1.3 lengths, in an A7 at this track over 450m (28.23). This easier and can improve sharply. SAWPIT STANLEY (1) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.
