Yonkers Raceway Race 6

Race 6

Prize Money: $32,078

ALWAYS A THRILL (1) gave a good account at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten just 1.5 metres into fourth. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Won't find this any harder and he can test this line-up. BETTOR NOT (3) is in good form at present. Finished fifth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Primary contender based on those recent efforts. SWEETHOMEALABAMA N (4) finished eighth last start over 1609m at Meadowlands. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. TH COLBY (6) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
