Oaklawn Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden Claiming
LIKE A DIAMOND (13) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1106m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds an easier assignment and can take the next step and salute. WHISPERING CHARM (11) could only manage fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. SWEET BABY D (4) is a six-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent appearance over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. A VISION OF HOPE (5) was prominent at the bend and finished third last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. In the right race and is worth serious consideration.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, second last of 11 at this track on March 19 over 1207m, 41 len behind Roseanne carrying 52kg at $57.50. Cannot enthuse after that sub-standard performance.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track on March 19 over 1207m, 2.75 len behind Roseanne with 55.5kg at $1.50. The race before that 5th of 12 at this track on March 1 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind She's My Last Call with 53.5kg at $6.10. Making headway. Likely to measure up again.

At the latest run 6th of 9 at this track on March 20 over 1106m, 12 len behind Mspunkinsperegrine carrying 54kg at $15.60. The run before that 9th of 12 at this track on March 1 over 1207m, 15 len behind She's My Last Call carrying 53.5kg at $13.70. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.
