Northfield Park Race 12 - Race 12

LITENINGONTHEBEACH (1) finished third last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1609m at The Meadows. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. LAKE CHARLES (9) had to call on all reserves to score last start over 1609m at this track, getting home by just 1.5 metres. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go his way at some stage. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. CADILLAC BAYAMA (8) is the next elect off a last-start win by 4.5 metres at Scioto Downs over 1609m. MAKES SENSE (7) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 1609m at Scioto Downs last time out. Something for the Multiples: OUR BENSON N (2)

Two back was well beaten into second behind Lou Grant at The Meadows over 1609m in a NW9700L4 on August 22 at $4.40. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Lake Charles at this track over 1609m in a NW10000L4 on August 31 at $3.30. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.

Has been racing well this preparation and showed plenty of improvement following August 16 run. Last start posted a big 5 m win as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:52.30) beating Jk's Champ in NW3500L4 on August 24 at $1.10. This race will be harder than that win. Happy to risk in this.

Seven-year-old entire showed improvement last time. Won by 5 m as favourite (Fr3) at this track (1:53.20) beating Unique Catch in NW5000L4 on August 31 at $2.40. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Quick Trick at this track over 1609m in a NW5000L4 on August 24 at $8.60. This is likely to prove too tough.
