Northfield Park Race 11

Race 11

Prize Money: $27,933

HELLABALOU (8) has been racing very well and deserved his victory last start, scoring by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Meets a comparable field so he can certainly make it two on the bounce. MIKI SHAN N (5) finished fifth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago over 1609m. Tackles a similar assignment and he can find winning ways. BACK IN MY DAY (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth at this track over 1609m. Must be included. BISMARKDUPLESSIS N (3) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track on May 10.
