Oakbank Race 1

Duttons Mdn Plate

Stake: $55,000

BLEAK MID WINTER (4) returns for the sharp Clarken & O'Shea partnership. Has been well supported in both starts and has been far from disgraced. Still lightly raced so has plenty of upside. Milnes claims 1.5kgs and looks the one to beat. MOUGENOT (8) gave backers a bold sight last start and never stopped trying once reeled in. Draws to get the gun run and strips cherry-ripe fitness fourth-up. Sure to be very competitive. MISTER HOCKEY (7) is a Highland Reel gelding on debut for the smart R & C Jolly stable. Has impressed in both his lead-up trials and should make his presence felt. PAMIERS (9) has caught the eye at both starts. Will likely head straight back again from the draw and saved for the final shot at them. DAPPER DON (5) returns and makes his stable debut. Best of the rest.

Comments

Gelding by Highland Reel facing the starter for the first time. Trial form indicates he's up to a solid debut. Runner-up in a Oakbank trial over 1050m on January 3. Looks all set to run well.

Going well. Returns from a 35-day let-up. At the latest run led but faded 2nd of 11 at Morphettville Parks 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on March 15 over 1250m, 3.5 len behind All Too Mysti with 57kg at $11. The run before that 3rd of 12 at Murray Bridge 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on March 8 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Ad Astra with 57kg at $20. Doesn't need to improve a great deal to take this out.

Resuming after a four-and-a-half months break. Finished off last preparation fifth of 8 at Balaklava 3yo+ Mdn-Sw December 4 over 1600m, 1.1 len behind Sam's Reward with 52.5kg at $1.70. On debut second of 12 at Balaklava 3yo+ F&M Mdn-Sw October 16 over 1200m, soft track; 1.2 len behind Scandalist carrying 53.5kg at $17. Has upside and is worth following up.
