Northfield Park Race 8 - Race 8
TEMPTING FLAMES (5) Rocketed home when winning last time at Scioto Downs and hard to fault at the distance. Unbeaten last 2 runs and solid career start. Hard to beat. DANCIN MIKI (6) Ran 4th last run at Scioto Downs. Giving another chance here. Has a great burst of speed late. Gets a chance to win. PA LEXI (2) Finished 6th last start at Scioto Downs. Driver Dan Noble is in top form for this stable. Watch market moves closely. JAR OF HEARTS (7) Moved through the field into 5th last start at Scioto Downs. Will be motoring home late. Might be one for the placings.

Stormed home to win last time at Scioto Downs and will be well suited at the trip. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 attempts and good career start. Great chance.
