CROWN OAKS
Results
Over to our feature of the day, the G1 VRC Oaks. It's hard to go past GETTA GOOD FEELING (1) who was heavily supported to win the G2 Wakeful Stakes on Saturday, never looking like losing there after tracking the speed and sprinting clear to win softly. She has to run the 2500m now but gets absolutely every chance to do so from barrier four and deserves to be in the red. THE PEARLS (2) might be the danger coming through the G1 Spring Champion, third there behind two talented colts. She should relish the trip and the J-Mac/Waller combination has to be respected. STRICTLY BUSINESS (7) was 1400-2000m in the Wakeful but ran very well behind the favourite and should improve off that. VOTING RIGHTS (10) was better in the Wakeful and should take some catching on speed. JUST A JOURNEY (4) is a bit of a query at the trip but going well.
