Oxford Am Race 2

253Mtrs (D3)

Stake: $610

SAVANA ATHAS (4) hasn't been far away here at the last two, finding the frame both times, most recently when third beaten 6 lengths (15.66). The form out of last run is most impressive. Deserves a win and gets his chance. SAVANA BRENDO (5) finished second two starts back before missing the placings at his latest appearance in a D2 at this track over 253m (15.94). Expected to do much better this easier level. MINSTRELS SEVEN (3) is a last start D3 winner, jumping from this trap and scoring by 1.5 lengths over 253m at this track. Boasts a strong record off this same draw, including two and three places from six starts. Expected to feature again. SAVANA GRANDAD (6) was well supported last time but could only manage second (15.84), beaten 1.5 lengths. Racing well and deserves a win.

Solid effort after racing on the speed to score in a D3 by 1.5 len at this track over 253m (15.91). Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.
