Yonkers Raceway Race 6

Race 6

Prize Money: $32,078

HEZA CHARTTOPPER A (1) finished second last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.6 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets a comparable field and he can find winning ways. ALWAYS A THRILL (5) turned in a much better run last time out when he scored by 4 metres over 1609m at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. HEMSWORTH N (4) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fifth at this track over 1609m. FORWARD FLASH (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 3 metres at this track over 1609m.

Scored at his last two starts. Last start won by 3 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:53.30) beating Bettor Not in HGW5BNM8 on June 2 at $2.20. Hard to leave out on current form. Sure to give backers a sight.
