2015 Investec Oaks Betting Preview PT 1

There 2015 Investec Oaks is set to run this Friday and the betting markets are getting pretty interesting as we get closer to the final declaration stage. This one looks a bit more open than the Derby itself, which of course runs the following day, and you can bank on some interesting movement in the odds here as we enjoy the build-up to the Oaks since there are more than a few potential winners that are in the mix here.

At first glance you’ll notice that many of the usual suspects are here with a good assortment of three-year-old fillies but we’ve also got a few from lower profile yards that are very much in the mix as well. 

 

Right now it appears as though the pair of Legatissimo and Crystal Zvezda are battling out for the position of outright favourite with the former appearing to be the leading choice for punters ahead of the contest. David Wachman trains her for the Tabor, Smith, Magnier trio and she’s making a big step up from her last run in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket where she was able to triumph over Lucida by a solid three-quarters of a length. 

 

Ryan Moore was up that day and made a very nice ride out of the opportunity he had available, quickening at just the right time and staying on strongly to pound to the lead with about 75 yards remaining. 

 

She delivered for punters at a very solid 13/2 margin and you’re still looking at a decent price here if you reckon she gets the extra distance. Right now most major bookmakers have her floating at anywhere from 3/1 to 5/2 with a couple coming in at 11/4. With Ryan Moore in the irons she is obviously a much more significant threat here.
