Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $20,948

CREATIVE VENTURE (3) filled a minor placing at this track two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a nice race and can find winning form. SWISS HOUSE ONFIRE (5) turned in an uncharacteristically poor run most recently when 25 metres away in eighth over 2012m at this track. Form prior to that had been solid. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. BACKSTREET PLAYER (2) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fifth at this track over 1609m. BIG CHARLIE MORAN (1) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at Philadelphia a week ago.
