Northfield Park Race 6 - Race 6

LAKE CHARLES (7) hard to fault recently. Scored two back at this track then lined up for a hat trick and finished 3 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track at the latest run a week ago. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Finds a suitable assignment and can grab another win. CUPID SHUFFLE (1) ran sixth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 9 metres. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. LOU GRANT (5) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at The Meadows nine days ago. POCKET THE CASH N (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a neck at this track over 1609m.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 9 m by Beach Bum Harley (1:52.20) in OPEN HCP on September 20 at $30.30. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 12 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:53.00) beating Tick's A Yankin in NW5000L4 on September 13 at $1.20. Going okay so keep him safe.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at The Meadows, beaten 20 m by Out Of Ice (1:48.40) in OPEN HCP on September 18 at $12. The run before 9th (Fr7) over 1609m at Scioto Downs beaten 12 m by Higher Ground (1:49.40) in EWART CONS on September 12 at $82.50. Can turn things around in this suitable contest.

Last start good run when 2nd (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 3 m by Beach Bum Harley (1:52.20) in OPEN HCP on September 20 at $3.90. Two runs back posted a big 8 m win (Sr1) at this track (1:50.20) beating Beach Bum Harley in OPEN HCP on September 6 at $2.90. Plenty to like about his prospects.
