Northfield Park has a 15-race card loaded with Ohio Sires Stakes Championships. The All-Stakes Pick 4 with a $20,000 guaranteed pool starts in Race 8. The sequence has a low 12% takeout, and it will be my focus.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 8 (8:34 PM EST)

4-Sugar Instead (9/5)-The Virgil Morgan 2-year-old is a 11 for 11 this year and has a perfect 4 for 4 record at Nfld. She is a cut above the rest, and barring a miscue, Brett Miller should be posing after the race.

Race 9 (8:56 PM EST)

5-Sesaide Diva (9/5)-The Ron Burke filly is a nice one and if she gets the top without much strain it could be all over. With $300k on the line, those that don't usually gun out could be doing so. If the start doesn't go smoothly an upset could happen and will use a couple of others just in case.
6-No Foolin April (5-1)-Dexter Dunn will look to work a cozy journey, just like what happened on 9-7 at ScD. Could pop at a square price with an efficient close-up trip.
7-Wasted On You (4-1)-The post helps the price, and this is another who could make some noise with a smooth steer. Has won 4 of 11 this year and has had excuses for a couple of losses. May need things to fall into place for a picture but looks like a live gimmick play.

Race 10 (9:18 PM EST)

2-Spaaaanzano (9/5)-Comes in off a gate to wire score at Dela and most likely Aaron Merriman will look to follow the same game plan tonight. Should be large and in-charge once the wings fold and the race will go through the Chris Beaver trainee.

Race 11 (9:40 PM EST)

1-Janelle Granny (6/5)-Doesn't have huge gate speed but Dunn will get away on top or close to it. Granny can provide an extra gear and has a pilot who will know how to use it.
5-Clever Cody (10-1)-Will toss the last race at Wbsb, my take is that was used as a needed start. The connections were pointing to this contest and Merriman will be aggressive off the gate. Needs a trip, but tries hard and it wouldn't be a shock if lands in the pocket or on the point off the gate.
6-Hundred Dollar Man (6-1)-Should offer a price and if the fraction are sizzling, the Lather Up 3-year-old could be in the hunt at the wire. Montrell Teague could finish best of all off a stalking trip.
