Australian Oaks – Form Comments
| 1 | Verry Elleegant | Impressive in past two wins, her only two starts in Sydney. Stepped up to 2000m when 1.8 lengths winner from Frankely Awesome in G1 Vinery Stud Stakes at Rosehill on 30 March. All five wins have come on soft and heavy ground. |
| 2 | Aristia | Sound effort, on heavy ground, when 4.1 lengths 3rd to Verry Elleegant in G1 Vinery Stud Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill on 30 March. Capable on soft but drier track would be an advantage. Won the G1 VRC Oaks (2500m) at Flemington last November on good rated track. |
| 3 | Frankely Awesome | Frankel filly who stepped up in class and ran well when 1.8 lengths 2nd to Verry Elleegant in G1 Vinery Stud Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill on 30 March. Capable all conditions and looks open to further improvement. |
| 4 | Imelda Mary | Rider said failed to handle soft conditions when 10.5 lengths 14th to Sentimental Miss in G1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m) at Trentham on 16 March. Has won twice at 2000m on good ground, at G2 level, in 2019. |
| 5 | Maracaibo | Sound effort when 0.4 lengths 3rd to Aliferous in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. Three previous wins had come on good ground and was 2 lengths 4th to Aristia in G1 VRC Oaks (2500m) at Flemington last November. |
| 6 | Aliferous | Improved from near last mid-race when head winner from Amangiri in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. Capable all conditions, impressed last week and potentially open to improvement. |
| 7 | Scarlet Dream | Slow to begin when 9.2 lengths 7th to Verry Elleegant in G1 Vinery Stud Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill on 30 March on heavy track. Boasts two wins and a nose second from only three starts on good rated tracks. |
| 8 | Clementina | Ran on well when 2.2 lengths 9th to Aliferous in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. That followed 1.9 lengths 4th to Sentimental Miss in G1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m). Drier track likely to suit and has blinkers first time. |
| 9 | Autumn | Struggled in ground when 9.3 lengths 8th to Verry Elleegant in G1 Vinery Stud Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill on 30 March on heavy track. Might improve on firmer surface. |
| 10 | Rocknavar | Best work late when 2 lengths 8th to Aliferous in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. That followed strong win at 1840m in Brisbane on good ground. |
| 11 | Romani Girl | Made late ground when 2.3 lengths 10th to Aliferous in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. Reliable Man filly who is another likely to appreciate a firmer track surface. |
| 12 | Mrs Madrid | Raced handy and battled on OK when 1.8 lengths 6th to Aliferous in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. |
| 13 | Bye Bye Belle | Stayed on well when 1.9 lengths 7th to Aliferous in G3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) on soft ground at this track last Saturday. That was only fourth career start and followed 1950m Maiden win on good ground. |
| 14 | Miss Moana | Tracked wide and ran well when 2.6 lengths 3rd to Itasca in Wyong 1600m Class 2 on heavy ground on 30 March at second run this year. Won 2340m Maiden on good ground last October before having little luck when 7.4 lengths 9th to Aristia in G1 VRC Oaks (2500m) at Flemington in November. |
| 15 | Happy Every Day | Front-runner who faded when 9.4 lengths 10th to Semari in G3 Epona Stakes (1900m) at Rosehill, on heavy ground, on 23 March. Drier track may help but sharp improvement required. |
