Oaklawn Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Allowance
GUN RUNNER CHARLIE (8) was far too good first up last start when he scored by 6 lengths over 1609m at Del Mar (Dirt). Fitter for that last hitout and another win looks on the cards. FIRST PLAYER (2) should be at his peak after three runs this prep, the latest a second over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) three weeks ago. This looks a nice assignment. DETERMINEDLY (7) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1710m at Woodbine, beaten 7 lengths. Has been in the money at each second up start. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. FIREBALL BIRDIE (9) was prominent at the bend and finished third last time over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 3.5 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
