Northfield Park Race 5 - Race 5
AIN'T NO FIRE (9) finished second last start, beaten 21 metres at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Talented and has plenty of upside. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go his way at some stage. Leading hope in a similar race. TS CODY (2) has been a bit hot and cold and that continued last start when he finished third, beaten 16 metres, in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Has the talent to take care of this field. HUNTERANDMILO (7) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at Scioto Downs a week-and-a-half ago. OURWHISKEYCAVALIER (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on July 19.

Last start 6th (Sr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by A Legends Secret (1:57.20) in NW2PMCD on July 19 at $11.60. At his previous start 4th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 m by Race On (1:55.00) in NW2PMCD on June 29 at $8.30. Makes plenty of appeal.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Tsunami King at The Meadows over 1609m in a NW3EXTPM on July 10 at $27.90. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Robinthecradle at this track over 1609m in a SABCS 3C on July 19 at $8.40. Has the ability to take this out.
