Oxford Race 7

450Mtrs (A5)

Prize Money: $521

FOOTFIELD BETSY (2) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a head winner of an A7 at this track over 450m (27.77). Hard to fault winning form and expected to feature despite the tougher grade. CUCKOO FUND (1) was below best last time at this track (28.06) in an A6, finishing a 6 length fourth. Has already won three times from this trap. Looks one of the chances. ALOHAS RASCAL (5) has a strong record this track and trip with 11 wins and 10 placings from 33 starts. Recorded a one length win (28.09) in an A7 last time at this track. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. METRIC BUSTER (4) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Comments

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th on February 27 over 450m at this track behind Shanbally Blues beaten 6 lengths (28.06) in an A6. More than capable and well placed to find his best form.
