Yonkers Raceway Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $19,847

THE IDEAL DANCER A (4) was in the money at this track two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. This should be an easier assignment so he is sure to prove tough to beat. PINE BUSH ITALIANO (1) produced a better effort last start, finishing second over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Has the talent to take this out. LYRICAL GENIUS A (6) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 6 metres at Saratoga over 1609m. RAYRAY (3) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1609m.
