Oaklawn Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Special Weight
PLAZA CUE (2) Fresh today after a break. Ran a solid race on the speed before weakening to finish 2nd beaten by almost 9L last start at Turfway Park and drawn nicely. Will go close today. QUICK TO CHARM (3) Finished well when 3rd beaten by almost 15L last run at this venue and going over more ground. Has not missed the money this campaign in 2 attempts. Big chance. DELICIOUS DIVA (5) First run back from a break. Put in a competitive run when placing 3rd last time here. Will give a big sight. CHARTED DESTINY (6) Was ordinary when 8th last time at this venue but racing over a longer distance. Coming to a new trainer. Should get going late. Worth some thought.

Resuming after a spell. Odds of $36.00 and made up ground when 4th last time at this track and drawn well. Expected to settle towards the rear. This looks a tough assignment.

Fresh today. Was quite a handful for the competition when 2nd beaten by nearly 9L last start at Turfway Park and can find a nice position from the draw. Strong chance to be considered.

Managed to run into 3rd last run at this venue and going up in distance. Been in the money each start this preparation. Should progress and will be close.

Started $10.00 and made some ground when 5th last run at this track and was on debut last time. Likely to get back in the field. Going up in trip. Have to look elsewhere.

Fresh after a break. Ran home into 3rd beaten by close to 8L last time at the track. Definite contender.

At $6.00 lacklustre showing when 8th last time at this venue but facing a rise in trip. First appearance for a new trainer. Has a nice turn of foot. Take on trust.
