Matt responds with:

I think your problem with your oven spring is your use of Quick Yeast. This 
yeast was designed for only one rise I believe. I would mix the dough, let 
relax then make it up and put in pans and allow to proof. Basically your 
combining your fermentation and your proof times at once in the pan.

I would strongly recommend that you keep the method that you are using and 
go to a regular yeast.

I think that your problem will be solved either way.
