Northfield Park Race 5 - Race 5
NEW PLAN STAN (3) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 1.5 metres from the winner. Has the benefit of a good draw. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. TOMMY COUNT (4) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at Scioto Downs two weeks ago. CRITERION (1) should not have any excuses from the favourable draw. Something for the Multiples: LETHIMGOJOE (6)

Last start 7th (Sr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Explosivetom (1:58.10) in NW2PMCD on August 19 at $3.80. Two runs back won by a neck (Fr4) at this track (1:58.30) beating Yo Mack Daddy in NW2PMCD on May 6 at $3. Sure to be about the mark.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Last start 7th (Sr1) over 1609m at Scioto Downs beaten 35 m by Spiritual Faith (1:55.10) in NW4CDCL on August 20 at $14.20. The run prior 5th (Fr1) over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 12 m by Renegade Gypsy (1:55.40) in NW2101L4 on August 6 at $11.70. Anticipating a much better performance this time.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 30 m by Alloverchina (1:57.20) in NW2PMRLT on August 18 at $19.80. Showed ability the run before when she won by 3 m as favourite (Fr4) at this track (1:59.30) beating The Ghost Doctor in NW1PMCD on August 12 at $1.60. Not out of the equation.
