Yonkers Raceway Race 1

Race 1

Prize Money: $19,581

VALI HANOVER (1) ran seventh last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 30 metres. Expect him to be prominent. MR CONTESTANT (4) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track a week ago. BAR KEEP DE VIE (5) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1609m at Meadowlands on January 11.

Didn't impress first-up at this course and distance beaten 30 m seventh behind Cal Miles N Shell in a NAADA W L1 on January 22. Capable of a better showing than the first-up effort.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Knickknack Hanover at Meadowlands over 1609m on January 2 at $20.10. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Ourmomentntime at Meadowlands over 1609m on January 11 at $9.50. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.
