Northfield Park Race 1 - Race 1
SMOKIN HILL (4) has had two runs this campaign and is yet to finish in the top three. Added to the sequence last time over 1609m at Scioto Downs, finishing 14 metres away from the winner in fifth. This should be an easier assignment so he is in the right race to find the winners' list. GARY (3) ran second last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 12 metres. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. ENDLESS DANCE (5) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at this track nine days ago. APPLE TOWN (6) is worth some thought based on his second over 1609m at this track two runs ago.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Uff Da at this track over 1609m in a NW1PMCD on June 17 at $69.60. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Alittledab'lldoya at this track over 1609m in a NW1PMCD on August 10 at $6.70. Has the ability to play a major role.

Recent efforts have been modest. Last start 5th (Fr1) over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 14 m by Jafar (1:53.30) in HGNW1PMRLT on July 16 at $20.40. The run previous 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at Scioto Downs beaten 40 m by Fires Champ (1:53.20) in HGNW1PMRLT on July 2 at $79.50. Suitably placed and can turn things around.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 40 m by Alittledab'lldoya (1:54.00) in NW1PMCD on August 10 at $27.40. At the previous start 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 65 m by Big Energy (1:55.00) in NW1PMCD on July 29 at $5.80. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.
