Oaklawn Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Starter Allowance
COOKE CREEK (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1710m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Second up record is very strong. Strips fitter and can feature. FORT SAM (7) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1609m at this track, beaten only 0.1 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. OSCAR ECLIPSE (6) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1710m at this track, clocking in 6 lengths from the winner. Major contender. HAPPY STRIKE (5) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.1 lengths from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. Well placed to run top-three again.

Second run back. Comes off a 51-day let-up. First-up after two months ran last in a small field at this track on March 5 over 1710m, 7 len behind Saudi Crown with 56.5kg at $6.90. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by 3 len at Delaware Park LR September 28 over 1811m defeating Awesome Aaron carrying 54kg at $7.60. Fitter again and a winning hope.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 4th of 7 at this track on April 9 over 1710m, 6 len behind First Division carrying 54kg at $15. The run before that 3rd of 8 at this track on March 15 over 1207m, 1.5 len behind Otto The Conqueror with 53.5kg at $14.70. Can make amends for a modest effort last time.
