Northfield Park Race 8

1609M

Prize Money: $77,519

GENTLEMAN'S CLUB (5) saluted two runs back then recorded a comfortable victory last time out, scoring by 8 metres over 1609m at this track. That latest effort is good enough to take out a race like this. CROCODILE STATION (3) turned in a much better run last start when he scored by 12 metres over 1609m at Scioto Downs. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Big chance in this comparable race. SPARKS N FIRE (1) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Scioto Downs. MASERATI MARV (2) good effort on debut last start, finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track. Has plenty of scope for improvement.
