Northfield Park Race 9 - Race 9
POMPNCIRCUMSTANCE (4) has recorded two wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Maintained the impressive form last time when 2.25 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field and he can take care of this line-up. JAFAR (2) scored last time out by 18 metres in a nice return to form at this track over 1609m. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can go right on with the job. BAY CAMO (5) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. WESTERN IVY (1) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 30 m by Robinthecradle (1:54.20) in BCS 3C FN on October 18 at $23.60. The start before 5th (Fr6) over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 23 m by The Shredder (1:51.20) in HGNW4CDCL on August 27 at $48.90. Worth another chance. Leading contender.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Obiwon Kobi at this track over 1609m in a NW2PMCD on October 20 at $10.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Crush It at this track over 1609m in a NW2PMLC on October 25 at $2.40. Nicely placed to take this out.
