GOING: G(4)

SEN OXLADE STAKES 1300m

Track: GOOD3   Clear (Max: 20)   Rail: Out 4.5m Entire. (Pent: 5.81).  

Megastar Heart and Tehina possess good early speed and will battle for early honours. Although still a maiden EMBASSY (1) has been right there in all four starts to date and strikes a very winnable contest here. Looked good placing here first-up before another solid effort at Doomben last time out. Strips fitter third-up from the break and the step-up to the 1300m looks ideal. Rates the testing material. DON'T FORGET JACK (8) hasn't done much wrong winning both outings so far and has earned his shot at Listed level now. Hard to knock winning form. TEHINA (13) broke through for a dominant Canterbury victory at her second start and will have derived a stack of confidence from that win. Can go right on with the job now. MEGASTAR HEART (6) didn't measure up at Group 2 level last start but will appreciate the drop in grade here. In the mix. HEINOUS (11) rounds out the selections. SUGGESTED PLAY: Embassy to shed the maiden tag.
