Oaklawn Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Claiming
KINGSCLIFF (2) has switched yards since finishing second four weeks ago over 1207m at this track. Sure to take beating. PHANTOM SLAYER (5) is back after a break of four months. At the last run before the layoff he finished 12th over 1308m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Bold showing expected. ASTRO BEAU (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1207m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths into fifth. Likely improver with strong prospects. SOCIAL CLIMBER (9) made his debut last start at a big quote but defied the market to grab third, beaten 4 lengths, over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement.

Jumped at long odds at debut, 3rd of 11 at this track on March 5 over 1207m, 4 len behind Mr Goodtime carrying 52kg at $47.20. Doesn't need to improve a great deal to be opening his account.
