Oxford Race 8

450Mtrs (A7)

Prize Money: $554

SAVANA KILSHANIG (5) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 450m (28.19). Has claims if she runs up to expectations. SAVANA CATAPILLA (3) turned in a solid run fresh when finishing in the placings at this track in an A7 (28.10). Will strip fitter for the run. Expecting another good run. CRYSTAL GEM (1) was game in defeat off a low draw at the latest outing, finishing third and beaten 1.3 lengths (28.16) behind Snooty Bod at this track. Expected to feature. SAVANA EMPRESS (2) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but could manage only third (28.16) over 450m at this track. Thereabouts of late and can feature with the right run.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished last over 253m at this track beaten 4 lengths (16.05) behind Savana Florida in a D3 on July 22. On best form is more than capable. Keep safe.

Finished second when resuming last start over 450m at this track (28.10) in an A7. Much improved for this and is a leading contender.

Charged out of the boxes with a hot early sectional but gathered in and finished third (28.21) at this track over 450m. This looks too tough.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 1.75 lengths fourth (28.19) at this track. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.
