Northfield Park Race 9 - Race 9
MET YOUR REQUEST (8) was out of the money two runs back at this track then displayed pleasing improvement last start to score by 4 metres over 1609m at the same circuit. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. LOGO (6) maintained the recent momentum last time out when he scored by 3 metres over 1609m at this track. Primary contender in a similar race. LOVING TOUCH (1) is on the radar after her last-start fourth over 1609m at this track a week ago. MASS MARKET (3) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1609m at The Meadows on March 27.
