Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $41,221

CHRISTOPHER DANCE N (6) is in great form this campaign with seven wins and zero minor placings. Kept the ball rolling last time when successful over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Won't find this any harder and he can salute once again. COPPERFIELD (5) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 12 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. ROCKNROLL RUNA A (3) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid second at Plainridge Park over 1609m. Hard to find fault. NONE BETTOR A (1) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound fifth at this track over 1609m.
