Northfield Park Race 11 - Race 11 - 1609M

BUSTER'S SHADY (4) drew wide last start and was safely held, beaten 90 metres into ninth at Dayton Raceway over 1609m. Big chance if he is at his best. SPIRT AND HEART (2) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Hoosier Park. Can atone. BALLARD MR COIN (6) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.
