Oxford Race 12

450Mtrs (A8)

Prize Money: $626

NEWTOWN DOBBY (2) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 8 lengths at this track in a handy 28.02 beating Alohas Nidge. Can make it back-to-back wins. BALLYBLACK BETTY (1) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a nose winner of an A9 at this track over 450m (28.09). Goes up a level but key runner based on recent form. SAVANA IMOGEN (3) had been racing in honest fashion recording two placings in a row before finishing fourth (15.87) at this track latest. Solid record at the distance winning four races. Must be included in calculations. JURASSIC GOLIATH (4) followed a minor placing two runs ago with a plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths, in an A7 at this track over 450m (28.67). Worth another chance this easier line-up.

Good effort to score last start by a nose over 450m at this track in 28.09, beating Savana Imogen. Others hold stronger claims.

Chases back to back wins after scoring over 450m at this track in 28.02, set up by a sizzling early sectional. Key chance again.

Latest effort finished last on May 6 over 253m at this track behind Blackrose Wild beaten 3.5 lengths (15.87) in a D3. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.
