We got an oiled dining room table made from light oak (from Harvey's) that is due to get re-oiled. I will need to give a light sand first, also trying to get rid of one shallow scratch. Any recommendation for what oil to use?

Sorry should have been specific - I would use
"Osmo Polyx Oil, 3032, Satin, Clear"
I use it on everything oak as it takes damage well, wears flat, and easy to put on extra layer (or patches) to fix damage. Also easy to apply (apply thin layers, wipe off excess). Also test as some (not me) have found it can make some woods orange).
There is a good discussion here about what everyone used (includes my photos):

I am a fan of Fiddes Hard Wax Oil. Again, clear satin.
