Northfield Park Race 11 - Race 11 - 1609M
SPAAAANZANO (8) went well to finish second two starts ago then registered a commanding win last start, scoring by 15 metres over 1609m at this track. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Big chance in a similar assignment. DISGRUNTLED CARL (5) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 23 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. JOGGING FULL TROT (6) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when second at The Meadows over 1609m. Must be included. GABBYS ROCKYTOP (1) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound second at this track over 1609m.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Oberto at this track over 1609m in a OPENII HCP on March 22 at $2.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Oberto at this track over 1609m in a NW10000L4 on March 29 at $5.10. Sure to play a big role.

Last start was well beaten into fifth behind Spaaaanzano at this track over 1609m in a OPEN HCP on March 29 at $6.60. Raced better the start before that where he posted a big 4 m win (Fr4) at this track (1:56.10) beating Spaaaanzano in OPEN HCP on March 22 at $5.60. Strong winning prospects.
