Verdict: SOCIAL HISTORY rates a strong recommendation. He is a proven winner and is hard to ignore if forgiven a modest most recent effort, while Gift Of Oak is another to consider.

Comment: Aiming for a third C&D win after his success here last month; has chalked up two wins from his last six; despite that Mahoning Valley success, others more persuasive.

Gift Of Oak

7/2

Comment: A close third here over 1m (claimer) last month; does not win very often but winner of three races (6f-1m½f); now down in class (in for $10k from $15k); prospects as peak figure in the past year is the best in the field and there was plenty to like about his latest performance.

Comment: He meets the required standard ability wise; has won three of 18 career starts; didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten 6l) last month in a claimer; claiming tag now upped to $10k.
