Northfield Park Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609M
MO BAY (4) finished second last start, beaten 3 metres at this track over 1609m. Has ability and should be right in the finish. I LOVE MY MVP (3) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 7 metres at this track over 1609m. TRIUMPHANT'S CHIP (2) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound third at this track over 1609m.

Lines up again after a break of five months. Well beaten at the end of his last preparation when seventh at very big odds behind La Lolita. Hasn't won for two-and-a-half years, so it's hard to be over-confident.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Bluebird Revival at this track over 1609m in a NW2500L4 on March 10 at $24.30. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Fred's Dream Girl at this track over 1609m in a NW2500L4 on March 18 at $7.70. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.

Last start by 7 m as favourite (Fr3) at this track (1:59.30) beating Lous Gambler in NW1500L4 on March 17 at $1.70. Big chance to go back-to-back.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 40 m by Alan (1:57.30) in NW3500L4 on March 18 at $14.60. Showed ability the outing before when she won by 8 m (Fr7) at this track (2:00.10) beating Hitwiththeguy's in NW1500L4 on March 10 at $4.90. One of the better hopes.
