Oaklawn Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Starter Allowance
HESS (9) has struggled to recapture his best form in two runs, the latest when seventh over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Tackles a longer journey this time, drops in the weights on last run and rates a leading chance on best figures. DRUM ROLL PLEASE (1) is back from a spell of 11 weeks and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1408m at Woodbine All Weather. Capable of playing a major role. ROCKET SANDERS (3) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Scored at his only try at this trip and looks a clear threat. SWISS GUARD (6) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1609m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Nicely placed to maintain the form.

Comes off a 55 day let-up. Most recently crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 2nd of 12 at this track on December 26 over 1609m, 0.5 len behind Couperin with 56kg at $42.20. Before that ran last of 12 at this track on December 12 over 1811m, 29 len behind Money Run carrying 56.5kg at $18.50. Doesn't need to improve much to play a big role.
