Oaklawn Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
SMOKIN HOT STUFF (4) is back from a spell of ten weeks. Closed last prep with a sixth, beaten 15 lengths, over 1609m at this track. Big run is on the cards. SISSY SOX (3) was below her best last time, finishing sixth and beaten 11 lengths over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Finds a nice race and can make amends. HIGHLIGHT SHOW (2) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 8 lengths into sixth. Has the ability to put the recent run of form behind her. ALWAYS SPITEFUL (1) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Eddie Kenneally. By Classic Empire from Spitefulness.
