Northfield Park Race 12

Race 12

Prize Money: $143,678

PARIS'S DRAGON (1) was successful last time out by 2.25 metres at Scioto Downs over 1609m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. CHARLIE MAY (3) finished ninth last start over 1609m at Scioto Downs, beaten 25 metres, after a good second at this track the run prior. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can make amends. CLEVER CODY (2) is better than his last-start eighth over 1609m at Hoosier Park. RICK WINK (4) could only finish sixth over 1609m at Scioto Downs most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
