Northfield Park Race 14 - Race 14
BJORNSSON (1) has been racing well of late. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at The Meadows, beaten 6 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. TT'S MAGNUM FORCE (5) was in the money at Scioto Downs two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 14 metres. Forgive that last effort. Good enough to take out a race like this. MOHATU AS (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1609m. Genuine threat. DEADLY STING (9) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at this track over 1609m.

Solid run when a close second behind Tequila Talkin at The Meadows over 1609m in a NW1500L4 on September 10 at $6.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Knowyoucando at The Meadows over 1609m in a NW4000L4 on September 17 at $6.10. Strong winning hope.
