Yonkers Raceway Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $27,481

MUSIC HALL (6) has been most impressive of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 3 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. HAMMERING HANK (1) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m. SPEAKER OF PEACE (5) has put the writing on the wall with a couple of seconds recently, the latest at this track over 1609m.
