Oxford Am Race 9

450Mtrs (A5)

Stake: $630

PEACOCK EXPRESS (4) is progressing well with another good run, placing by 5.5 lengths (27.86) in an A5 at this track. The form out of his last race has been franked. Must come into calculations. HAVANA JETSTREAM (1) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 0.8 lengths second (27.48) in an A5 at this track. The form from her last run stacks up well. Must be included in calculations. SPORTING HAVEN (2) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 1.5 lengths (27.59) behind Magical Pippa at this track. Bold showing expected. SPOT ON CHEEKS (3) is another with top-three prospects.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only second over 450m at this track in 27.48. In form and can return to the winners' list.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into second over 450m at this track. Racing well enough to feature in the finish.

Winner two starts back at this track over 450m in 27.50. Last start missed the frame when 4th over 450m at this track in A5. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Well supported last time and burnt early with a scorching sectional but had to settle for the minor money, finishing third (27.86) over 450m at this track. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but gathered in late when a narrow fourth (27.99) over 450m at this track. Prepared to overlook.
