Northfield Park Race 16 - Race 16
SILVER BENTLEY (6) drew wide last start and was safely held, beaten 18 metres into seventh at Scioto Downs over 1609m. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. BAIT A HOOK (5) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. BETTERDEALMEIN (4) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. Something for the Multiples: BRADY TO GRONK (2)

Brings the right form to the table. Won by a neck as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:56.20) beating Magic Shark in NW1500L4 on August 10 at $2.40. Two runs back 4th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 18 m by Dragon Striker (1:56.20) in NW1500L4 on July 29 at $3.40. Looks one of the also-rans.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Won by 5 m (Fr2) at this track (1:55.20) beating Extra Crunchy in NW2500L4 on August 12 at $20.10. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into seventh behind Tan Man at this track over 1609m in a NW2500L4 on August 10 at $152.40. Form reads okay, but out of his depth.
