Swindon have confirmed that the Oaks will definitely take place in December.

The Property 192 Oaks will be for 72 bitches with a first prize of £15,000 plus £5,000 for the winning trainer.

Swindon boss Peter Geeves said: “We are still looking to finalise the dates which will need to be verified by the GBGB open race planning committee. At this stage we are probably looking at a start date of December 5th to finish on the 27th though, I must stress these are not confirmed dates.

“We are also looking to confirm whether or not Ireland’s Night Of Stars goes ahead because that will mean we move it forward a week.”
