Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Yonkers Open Pace Ms

Prize Money: $52,870

NIGHT HAWK (3) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last six starts including a second most recently at this track over 1609m. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. DUNKIN (5) turned in an out-of-character effort most recently when 95 metres away in eighth over 1609m at this track. Form prior to that had been solid. His recent effort is not a true indication. Good enough to take out a race like this. NAUTICAL HANOVER (2) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track a week ago. CAPTAINCOUNTRYSTAR (4) is tough to leave out on the back of five successive wins, most recently at Harrington Raceway a week ago.

Last start 2nd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten a neck by Venturesome Arden (1:53.10) in 3-5 YO OPN on June 24 at $3.20. Two runs back won by 2.25 m (Fr4) at this track (1:51.40) beating Birthday in 3-6 YO OPN on June 17 at $5.70. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing fourth behind Cadillac Bayama at this track over 1609m in a NW21551L5 on June 10 at $5.40. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Shazam Blue Chip at this track over 1609m in a NW18801L5 on June 18 at $4.50. Capable of taking this out.

Scored at his last five starts. Last posted a big 6 m win (Fr6) at Harrington Raceway (1:50.40) beating Layton Hanover in FFA on June 24 at $4.60. Hard to leave out on current form. Worth including.

Last start was well beaten into eighth behind Pleaseletmeknow at this track over 1609m in a 3-6 YO OPN on June 17 at $5.90. Raced better the start before that where he won by 1.5 m (Fr1) at this track (1:51.30) beating Its A Me Mario in 3-6 YO OPN on June 10 at $5.50. Definite winning chance.
