Oaklawn Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Starter Allowance
PAPA YO (8) was well in commission last start over 1811m at this track (Dirt) when third, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has a very good record here with two wins from four starts. Likely to feature. BAXTER (6) is fitter for two runs back from a spell and has been in the placings at both appearances, the latest when second over 1811m at this track (Dirt). Ready to peak. SHEPHERD (7) is racing very well and has three wins on end, most recently getting home by one length over 1811m at this track (Dirt). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Capable of testing this field. FEAR OF UNION (1) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.5 lengths at this course and distance last start which was an improvement on the first-up run. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
