Oaklawn Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Allowance

SYSTEMIC CHANGE (1) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish second last time out over 1609m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Bold showing expected with the blinkers added. PAPA YO (7) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 3.5 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1609m. Expected to take some stopping again. CAROLO RAPIDO (8) went to the paddock after scoring at his only appearance last prep three months ago over 1710m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Under the care of new trainer Jordan Blair this prep. This is his optimum trip with four wins from eight starts and has to be included. SWEETALKINGBOURBON (4) lines up for the first time since November 20. Looking to emulate his win at Keeneland when returning from a spell last prep. Can make his presence felt. Something for the Multiples: EMPIRE BUILDER (9)

Recent form sound. Comes off a 32 day let-up. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Aqueduct on January 15 over 1609m, 7 len behind Ridgewood Runner carrying 56kg at $1.86. The run before that scored a big 5 len win at Aqueduct December 5 over 1609m defeating Refuah carrying 56kg at $2.24. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.
