Northfield Park Race 3

1609M

Stake: $8,858

CAPTAIN INCOME (2) finished fifth at Miami Valley Raceway two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway, beaten 9 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. THE MANDALORIAN (4) resumes here after closing his last prep with a fifth at this track on November 25. Expected to run well. EXTRA CRUNCHY (1) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. MR PNUT (6) is a chance after finishing in the money for the second time in a row last start, beaten 0.9 metres into second at this track. Something for the Multiples: CATERA GUN (3)

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind One Lucky Dude at this track over 1609m in a NW1500L4 on March 4 at $2.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing second behind Lakeside Buddy at this track over 1609m in a NW1500L4 on March 11 at $9.90. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Last start 5th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten 18 m by Tell's Victory (1:56.40) in NW1500L4 on March 10 at $6.60. Two runs back 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 25 m by So So De Vie (1:57.10) in NW1500L4 on February 25 at $75.10. Would rather see in something easier.

Returns from the paddock. Previously first up won by 4.5 m (Fr6) at Miami Valley Raceway (1:53.20) beating Heave Ho in NW2751L4 on April 10 2024 at $5. Expect another strong first-up performance.

Didn't do much at the last run, 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 16 m by Let'snotforget (1:57.20) in NW1500L4 on February 24 at $14.40. Before that 4th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 m by Dancethewayuare (1:54.40) in NW1500L4 on February 17 at $9.40. Even the minor placings look out of reach.
