Oxford Race 7

450Mtrs (A9)

Prize Money: $587

SAVANA SNICKER (3) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten 1.5 lengths over 450m this track in 28.09. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from three attempts. Good form should continue. KILLENAULE SPUD (1) is racing well, claiming an A6 win two back before finishing runner-up at her latest appearance in an A6 at Swindon over 476m (29.45). Will find this far more suitable. Go well. HAVANA PEPSI (4) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was an A9 winner three back (28.12) at this track over 450m. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. SAVANA TAYTO (5) claimed a D3 win two back before missing the frame at his latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 450m (29.16). Can find winning form again in this much easier company.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at her last three starts, the latest when second (29.45) over 476m at Swindon. Overdue for a win and gets her chance this time.

Sizzled early but found one better when runner up (28.09) at this track over 450m. Should prove hard to beat.
