Northfield Park Race 5 - Race 5
BEACH BABE HANOVER (1) put together some minor placings then displayed pleasing improvement last start to score by 6 metres over 1609m at this track on April 25. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she has the ability to mix it with them. CLIMATE (2) is racing well with four top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at Miami Valley Raceway over 1609m. No excuses from this advantageous draw. It doesn't get any easier but she is good enough to take this out. JAMIE AMANDA (6) ended last prep with a win at this track over 1609m seven months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. TAKEAWAY HANOVER (3) was not beaten far last start when second over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway. Ready to peak third-up from a spell.

Hard to fault of late. Last start posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr4) at this track (1:55.40) beating Mt Camas in FMNW1PMLC on April 25 at $1.40. In the right form and can score again.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fifth behind Dolly Jean at Miami Valley Raceway over 1609m FMNW1PM last start. Before that was beaten 1.5 metres second again at Miami Valley Raceway same class on April 17. Racing well and not without merit.

Finished off last preparation recording by 19 m as favourite (Sr1) at this track (1:54.20) beating Extra Sweet in OHF CON 2F on October 18 at $1.50. Previous preparation first-up posted a big 40 m win (Fr4) at Dayton Raceway (1:53.10) beating Its Nacho Turn in OHFS 2F on October 5 at $3. Sure to be thereabouts.
