Oaklawn Park Race 11 - Race 11 - Claiming
MITTY'S GRIDDY (11) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 3 lengths away in fourth over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on November 8. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Has blinkers added so he should be very sharp. BOURBON'S FAULT (5) has not appeared since he finished sixth over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on November 8. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. FIRE IN MY SUL (14) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when sixth over 1408m at Delta Downs six weeks ago after being prominent at the corner. Nicely placed to get the prize. FLYIN PRIVATE (1) has switched yards since scoring by 0.8 lengths at this track over 1207m on January 4. Something for the Multiples: TWO SEVEN O (9) HIGGINSVILLE (3)

Returns from a 49-day let-up. At the latest run 8th of 11 at this track on December 27 over 1609m, 17 len behind Herbs Bolt with 54kg at $19. The start before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.5 len at this track December 12 over 1207m defeating Miskell carrying 54.5kg at $5.10. Unlikely to threaten.

Entire back from a spell of seven months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign post a big 4 len win.

Certainly one to consider.
