Yonkers Raceway Race 9

Race 9

Prize Money: $34,380

CHIPPER DALE (2) turned in a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on December 18. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Steps up a level but he is capable of running another big race. VLAHOS (1) was out of the money two runs back at this track then displayed pleasing improvement last start to score by 3 metres over 1609m at the same circuit. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. HAND DOVER DAN (5) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track five weeks ago. DOROTEA TRIO IT (3) is worth some thought after her last-start fourth over 1609m at this track on December 18.

At his previous start good run when 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten a neck by Austral Hanover (1:58.20) in NW24901L5 on December 11 at $9.24. Capable of more than he has shown recently.

Fair performance when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Bestfriend Volo at this track over 1609m in a NW11601L5 on December 5 at $6.35. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Aquarius Face at this track over 1609m in a NW20000L5 on December 18 at $26.58. Perfectly placed to win again.

Last start 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m at Philadelphia, beaten 4.5 m by B Nicking (1:55.20) in NW10000L4 on December 31 at $2.10. Two runs back won by 1.5 m as favourite (Fr4) at Philadelphia (1:56.20) beating Mahone Seelster in NW7500L4 on December 24 at $1.30. Not a genuine contender.
