Oxford Race 8

450Mtrs (A2)

Stake: $717

RAPIDO SPOOKS (1) is long overdue for a win and in super consistent form, jumping from this trap to place last time at this track (15.36), making it three straight minors. Expected to feature again. CLONCUNNY BUBBLE (2) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 1.75 lengths into third (27.37) at this track in an A2 over 450m. Hard to beat again. SCRAHAN CRUISER (4) filled a minor placing two back then scored his maiden win (29.17) at Waterford over 480m last time. Has placed three times at this trip. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. FALLS OF DOCHART (3) is worth including after a top-three finish most recently.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in a D1 at this track over 253m (15.36). Racing well and is the testing material.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 450m in an A2 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow him up.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into third over 450m at this track. Cannot be taken lightly based on that sound recent effort.

Good performance after racing on the speed to score in an A4 by 3 len at Waterford over 480m (29.17). Has hit winning form and is worth thought again.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 3 length fourth (27.74) at this track. Can't recommend in this field.
