Northfield Park Race 3 - Race 3
SHAMROCK (1) was responsible for a far better performance at his latest appearance when he scored by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. This looks a sterner test than last time but he is capable of another big performance. FOREVER A LION AS (3) ran third last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 5 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. OBERTO (2) has trialled three times since his last run so expect he is forward enough to stake a strong claim fresh from a spell. STUMPY (6) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.
