Northfield Park Race 9 - Race 9
CPF CLEAN BUT MEAN (2) Close up last run at this track. Strong claims. MARK MY WORDS (3) Managed to come out on top by the slightest of margins last time at this track. Should muster plenty of early toe. Prominent showing expected and won't be far off them. BARCELONA MIKI (5) Narrowly denied victory last start at Dayton Raceway. In the mix. GOOD OLD BOY (1) Narrowly denied a win last time around here and has drawn the rails. Looks promising in this race.

Threw down a serious challenge last time around here and can save some energy from the alley. Can lift in this event.

Narrowly clinched the victory last time here. Likely to be well placed early. Aaron Merriman is a crucial engagement. Should go well.

Racing fresh after a break. Odds of $10.00 and finished 4th last start at this track but was on debut last time. Should come to hand quickly. Rough chance.

Odds of $9.50 and finished 6th last time here but having second career run. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.
