Northfield Park Race 11 - Race 11 - 1609M

LAKE CHARLES (2) finished fourth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 metres, after a good win at this track the run prior. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a similar line up and he is capable of a much better performance. CLUB SCENE (3) was out of the money last start when 11 metres from the winner in fifth over 1609m at this track. Best form reference might be his win at this track four starts back. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. His recent effort is not a true indication. Good enough to take out a race like this. TROSA A (4) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway. POCKET THE CASH N (5) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound third at this track over 1609m.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Winston at this track over 1609m in a NW5000L4 on March 15 at $1.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Bismarkduplessis at this track over 1609m in a OPEN II on March 22 at $13.70. Well placed to go a couple better.
