Northfield Park Race 12 - Race 12
FOX VALLEY LAVA (3) ran second last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 3 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field so she can play a big role in the outcome. DOWNTHEJERSEYSHORE (9) has recorded three wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Was again in sparkling form last start when she scored over 1609m at this track, getting home by 3 metres. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row. Tackles a similar assignment and she can go right on with the job. ALLSMOKEANDMIRRORS (4) is flying at present with four successive wins to her name, most recently at Batavia Downs a week-and-a-half ago. Big chance to keep the ball rolling. LADY RITA (2) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m.

Brings the right form to the table. Posted a big 9 m win as favourite (Fr4) at this track (1:55.10) beating Summa Z Tam in FM30000NW7 on October 16 at $2.20. Two runs back 2nd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 m by Goodnight Dance (1:54.00) in 30000CLNW7 on September 26 at $3.90. Not keen.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Shadows Dancers at this track over 1609m in a FMOPEN HCP on October 10 at $18.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Downthejerseyshore at this track over 1609m in a FMNW6500L4 on October 17 at $2.30. Has the right credentials to take this out.
