Northfield Park Race 9

Race 9

Prize Money: $12,500

PAPA DOC (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 5 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Finds a suitable assignment and can grab a well-deserved win. NOLA CHRISTIAN (2) won at this track two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Meets a comparable field and she is capable of a return to the winner's list. WHISKEY FINISH (4) disappointed last time when ninth over 1609m at this track. Can turn things around. RUMBLEINTHEVALLEY (8) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track on September 13.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Abbey D at this track over 1609m in a OPEN HCP on August 30 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Redwhite N Goo at this track over 1609m in a NW5000L4 on September 13 at $6.10. Looks ready to win again.

Last start was well beaten into ninth behind Redwhite N Goo at this track over 1609m in a NW5000L4 on September 13 at $44.40. Performed better the start before with a solid effort when 2nd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 6 m by Mister Sweet (1:57.30) in GLADA on September 6 at $7. Rates highly. Big chance.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (Fr8) over 1609m at Scioto Downs beaten 15 m by Vekna (1:55.10) in NW5501L4 on September 11 at $56.10. Showed ability the race before when she won by 19 m (Fr8) at Scioto Downs (1:54.40) beating Hill's Espress in NW2001L4 on September 3 at $8.90. Makes plenty of appeal.
