Northfield Park Race 11

1609M

Prize Money: $15,484

BENEZIA (9) Just missed last run here and promising career start. Expecting to settle positively. Been in the money 3 from 3 attempts this campaign. Respect against this field. SIR CACTUS JAX (8) Was agonizingly close last run around here. Won't be far away during the run. Performing impressively since returning from a spell. Among better hopes. PAULINES TEREVA (3) Threw down a serious challenge last time at Miami Valley Gaming & Racing. Marc St Louis Jr takes the reins today. Should be swooping on the field late. Likely to fill a place. LOVER'S PLAY (4) Was agonizingly close last run here. Giving another go here. Capable of a big run.
