Oaklawn Park Race 9 - Valley Of The Vapors S. Stakes
STICKER SHOCK (6) had been in top form landing two consecutive wins but last start missed the frame when fourth over 1710m in the G2 Fantasy Stakes at this track (Dirt). Should be prominent from the outset. Best figures should see her run well. KNICKLEANDIME (8) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by 6 lengths over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Has a fair record at this track with a win and two placings. Should park just off the speed. Will give a great sight. MISS CALL (4) is a speedy filly who was a winner first up at Keeneland (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. Will be in this for a long way. SCOT'S LAW (5) fought on for second last start over 1710m at this track (Dirt), beaten one length to add to some fine recent form. Likely improver with strong prospects.

Returns from a 48-day let-up. Most recently 6th of 9 at this track in the G3 Honeybee Stakes on March 1 over 1710m, 12 len behind Explora carrying 54kg at $72.50. The race before that second last of 8 at this track in LR on February 6 over 1710m, 10 len behind Search Party carrying 55.5kg at $30.80. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 44-day let-up. At the latest run won by a 0.3 len at this track March 5 over 1710m defeating Rockin Robin with 55.5kg at $15.30. The race before that ran on from midfield; 3rd of 11 at this track on February 5 over 1207m, 3 len behind Private Debbie carrying 55kg at $3.90. Broke through last time and is worth thought again.
