Oxford Race 8

450Mtrs (A3)

Prize Money: $568

SAWPIT SAUVIGNON (1) could manage only second but ran speedy time (27.06) at this track over 450m. Smart effort latest and looks a key chance again here. SOAP BOX HEADS (4) is in top form scoring comfortably at last two, winning by 4 lengths (27.45) last time and by 5 lengths (27.53) two back. Form should stack up. WENTWORTH DEREK (2) was a (27.39) winner last time out at this track from Box 3. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with two wins from four starts. Leading chance again. SAVANA JESSIE (3) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths, in an A2 at this track over 450m (27.77). No surprise to see her back in form.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 450m. Won't find this any tougher. Right in this.

Caught the eye last time with a sizzling early split which set up a nose win at this track in 27.39. Holds top-three claims.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a sensational early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fifth (27.77) at this track over 450m. Leading chance on best form.

Flew the lids with a sizzling split and led throughout with a 4 length win over 450m at this track (27.45). Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.
