The Bargain OAKS

Welcome to Tennessee for the running of the time honoured THE BARGAIN OAKS a race in the bargain series of races run by knightmare a man who has devoted himself to bargain horse racing. He does all the work all we need to do is any stables not supporting any residency just give your support to him. http://knightmare.freehostia.com/bbrs.htm this race has drawn a strong field stronger than the derby this year. A field of 11greets the starter here. I have a personal interest in this race with 3 runners . I hope to give a balanced assessment on all runners today.Stakes A mile and one sixteenth Fast Dirt $75,000 Fillies and mares, 3 years old

1 134266 ABSOLUT CLASS(JPN) climb J Nussbaum 9/1

Trained by Hawkz Racing Stables has been running honest races in claiming company switched to dirt last time producing big jump in sp solid enough run if it was not a one off result could be a place chance. Has won three races so far. Distance also a question mark.

2 153936 ECTONS FANTASY(KY) lifeline1 D Wiltont 99/1

Trained by Lifeline Stables a big supporter of bargain bred racing who has 3 runners in the derby also four ruins so far don’t point to her being in this although she has never tried a classic distance. As a maiden she should be safely held here.

3 149065 WARIUZ CORP(AUS) wariuz1 J Fletcher 8/1

Trained by Hawkz Racing Stables this LEGION filly one of two in this race. Probably bred more as a sprinter and may find this a little far for her. Won a MSW over 6f 3 starts back in reasonable time but was stopping in last furlong in the OZARK DIAMOND STAKES last time out.

4 160621 LT. TURLOUGH(NZ) lgbost2yo D Paz 34/1

Trained by Lgbost Stables this New Zealand bred filly by the speedy FALTAAT has had only 3 claiming race runs to date a first up 2^nd over 8f was pretty good and ran on well over 5f last time out may be the one for the upset.

5 111968 LANA’S IMP(GER) lifeline2 E Arnold 41/1

Lifeline Stables 2^nd of 4 runners in this was bred in Germany ran in a restricted stakes race 1^st up over a sprint distance and did little then won in a claimer over 8f with a huge increase in sp last time out if she handles the jump in class she may figure in finish.

6 134693 GONFALON BUBBLE(NM) widest Be Wallace 5/1

Trained by Fastnfirm Stables this AVENUE OF FLAGS has a pretty good record so far a 3^rd 1^st up over 8f was followed by 2 wins in short sprint races then 4 allowance races since she has never finished worse than 5^th in her last 6 starts and a nice 3^rd over 8.5f last time out says she has a good chance here will try to lead them all the way.

7 106527 TYLER’S SUMMER SKY(VA) lifeline1 S Mitcho 99/1

Another Lifeline Stables this filly has had 2 runs to date both in bargain races with a combined total of 63 ½ lengths from winners its hard to see her in this finish.

8 99787 TY’S COURT(KY) lifeline2 D Thomkal 91/1

The fourth of the Lifeline Stables this one is a first starter by WANDO who has some pretty good runners some who have figured in bargain races over dirt at or around this distance so if you are looking to break the bank this may be the filly to put your dollars on.

9 145716 WARIUZ LEGION(AUS) wariuz2 D Crisp 5/1

The 3^rd of the Hawkz Racing Stables runners also by LEGION she may be the biggest threat to the favourites the longer the distance the better she has performed. She has had 5 starts for 1 win and 4 placings so you would think she would at least place in this. Nice 2^nd running on in the rain affected OZARK DIAMOND STAKES last time point to a big run again here .

10 144674 RENDEZVOUS RATE(IRE) foxon6 R Bokie 6/5

We come to the ruling favourite and rightly so trained by the master foxon she won the OZARK DIAMOND STAKES last time out with a 91sp she is more experienced than all of these runners and has had 11 races for 4 wins and $122,000 in stakes. She has also won a open allowance over 8.5f sometimes harder to do than win a stakes race she should be to good for these filly here.

11 125307 TWAZZO(TX) txbred M Isdell 7/2

The 2^nd favourite she is trained by the man himself Knightmare Stables great choice in breeding for a bargain breed with the ROBERTO x MR. PROSPECTOR x NORTHERN DANCER cross she is by the little used sire SERAZZO who’s winners have been dirt routers may have found the wet track not to her liking last time out. In her first 4 races she had 3 wins and a 2^nd the last win over 9f with a 90sp in allowance company might be a better guide to her chances here the one who might topple the favourite .
