Oaklawn Park Race 9 - American Pharoah Overnight S. Stakes
CLASSIC CAR WASH (8) turned in a solid fresh performance last start when a minor placegetter over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.4 lengths. Overall record is sound when second-up and should be better for that first-up run. Should feature in the finish. WINNEMAC AVENUE (1) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish second over 1710m at this track (Dirt) at his latest appearance. Has a good record here at this journey. Ready to run very well. PUBLISHER (4) is in sparkling form this time in, the latest a course and distance winner by 0.3 lengths, making it two wins on end. Should be in the finish again. ECHO AGAIN (3) was beaten 17 lengths into fourth in a 1710m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Capable of featuring prominently.

Form hard to fault. Most recently won by a 0.3 len at this track March 7 over 1710m defeating Dr Storm carrying 56kg at $1.70. The start before that ran on from midfield and scored a big 6 len win at this track February 15 over 1710m defeating Bon Temps carrying 56kg at $1.70. Has the right credentials.
