Yonkers Raceway Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $29,052

PUSSYCAT DOLL (4) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 22 metres into eighth at this track over 1609m. Won't find this any harder and she can turn in a much better performance. PONDA SUPERB (3) turned in an out-of-character effort most recently when 12 metres away in seventh over 1609m at this track. Form prior to that had been solid. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field and she can turn in a much better performance. LADY BLUE JAY (6) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. JORDANNA HANOVER (2) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.
