New Zealand Oaks Form Guide & Tips

(1) Ohope Wins (Best Bet – $2.60)

She is the form runner in the Oaks after two extremely impressive wins. She came off the pace in both and picked them up with style late in the race.

We identified her as a Group 1 winner early in her career, and she could pay off punters with a big NZ Oaks win.

(2) Tajana ($11.00)

There is nothing wrong with her record, and although her two-year-old form ranked better, she is a live double-figure chance.

(3) Single Red ($4.60)

No match for Ohope Wins last start when running second. Needs to turn the tables, but if she gets away with a slow tempo, she could kick off the turn.

We expect her to stay all day, which makes her a winning chance.

(4) Autumn Glory (Best Roughie – $11.00)

Yulong secured her ownership following a win at Te Rapa in the Waikato Guineas. It was a strong win, and she could head to Australia very soon.

She’s bred to win the Oaks, which is why we’re taking the $11 odds from bookmakers, which is generous.

(5) Ultimate Habit (Best Each Way – $5.00)

An effortless winner at Trentham when winning at Group 2 level, and it was a good way to post her first career win.

She has always had plenty of ability, and now that she has put it all together, she could rise to another level.

(6) Ariadne ($14.00)

Second behind Ultimate Habit at Trentham, and her opening odds of $35 have been taken. A touch short in the market, but she has first four claims.

(7) Acer ($51.00)

Her last-start win didn’t come against a tough field, and it’s hard to include her in our Oaks picks.

(8) Clara Bow ($51.00)

She has yet to win a race from four attempts, but she wasn’t far away last time out. If you have room for one more in first four bets, she could boost payouts significantly.

(9) Crimson Sky ($41.00)

Not everything went her way last time out, but she might need another campaign under her belt to show her best.

(10) Born to be Royal ($41.00)

Well-beaten by Ohope Wins last start, so it’s hard to see her turn that form around.

(11) Fly Zenno ($31.00)

Yet to win, and she needs something much easier to boost her confidence levels.

(12) Dux ($81.00)

Broke maidens at New Plymouth in heavy conditions. Faces a massive rise in class, and she will do well to finish in the first half of the field.

(13) Savina ($51.00)

Another runner coming off a maiden win. Could make a better four-year-old, so wait until then.

(14) Savvy Donna ($23.00)

Not the worst runner at odds. She won at Matamata before finishing fifth behind Ohope Wins, which is the best form race.

Worth including in first four picks.

(15) Sweet Talkin Girl ($81.00)

Not running well enough to include in picks, hence the price.

(16) Iffigive ($81.00)

Another runner who needs to find 5-6 lengths to be competitive.

(17) Unbounded ($81.00)

It would be a huge upset if she got up.
