Northfield Park Race 8 - Race 8

WICKED CHARACTER (1) finished fifth last start, beaten 8 metres at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Must raise the bar but a win is on the cards. HELIUM N (8) turned in a strong effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing 13 metres from the winner in second. Comes back to Northfield Park and puts a strong record here on the line. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Won't find this any harder and he can take care of this line-up. LAKE CHARLES (6) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fifth at this track over 1609m. FEAR THE HATE (3) could only finish seventh over 1609m at this track most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.

Last start was well beaten into fifth behind Cadillac Bayama at this track over 1609m in a OPEN HCP on August 9 at $19.10. Raced better the start before that where he won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:52.00) beating Cadillac Bayama in OPEN HCP on August 3 at $2.20.
