Yonkers Raceway Race 6

1609M

Prize Money: $28,902

TAKE A CLOSER LOOK (2) Bold effort when winning last run here. On a winning streak the last 3 runs. Will be hitting the line strongly. Can win this. SHAKESPEARE (1) Narrowly denied victory last start here and drawn beautifully. Has the ability to take this out. WICHITA LINEMAN (6) Close to a win last run here. Must be considered. SCRIBBLERS (8) Competed in a tight contest last time at the track. Has the potential to improve sharply. Has very good finishing speed. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds
