Oaklawn Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Special Weight
BON TEMPS (2) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when he was in the firing line all the way. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. FERAL (9) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. MAXIMUM EFFORT (3) is a four-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 4 lengths when sixth over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration. TRANSFORMATIONAL (4) was safely held last start on debut over 1207m at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Should appreciate the longer journey now. Capable of a much better performance.

Form hard to fault. Last start 3rd in a small field at this track on March 8 over 1609m, 4 len behind Taptastic with 56kg at $3.20. Before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 7 at this track on February 15 over 1710m, 6 len behind Publisher with 56kg at $15.60. Should be right in the finish.

Second run back. First-up after two months 6th of 11 at this track on March 1 over 1710m, 4 len behind Gethsemane carrying 55.5kg at $12.20.
