Northfield Park Race 8 - Race 8
LATHER UP ATHENS (1) ran fourth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 16 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. NINETYNINEPROBLEMS (6) made it two wins from two runs this prep last start when he got the cash by 8 metres over 1609m at this track. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. ULTIMATE CATCH (5) is in line for another win at his third run back from a break after scoring over 1609m at The Meadows a week-and-a-half ago. Stick with him. WORKNUPALATHER (4) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at this track a week ago.

Last start 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 50 m by Thunder Jam (1:53.20) in NW1PMLC on April 26 at $81.60. Two runs back 5th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 25 m by Ninetynineproblems (1:55.00) in NW1PMLC on April 19 at $122.60. May find this too tough.

Racing consistently. Last start won by 3 m as favourite (Fr7) at The Meadows (1:53.30) beating Los Alamitos in NW1EXTPM on April 22 at $2.70. Going well enough to take care of these.
