Yonkers Raceway Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $35,112

ALL CLASS (3) drew a wide gate last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 11 metres into eighth at this track over 1609m. Meets a comparable field and from this more favourable draw he can feature in the finish. SPEAKER OF PEACE (5) turned in a good effort at his latest run to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on March 23. Finds a tougher race but another win is on the cards. IKNOWBETTER (6) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. BONDI LOCKDOWN A (4) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Six-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by a 0.9 m (Fr4) at this track (1:56.00) beating Heza Risk Taker in NW15000L5 on March 23 at $3.58. Racing in great heart and another win is on the cards.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Typhoon Banner at Meadowlands over 1609m in a 40000CLHC on March 14 at $6.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Sterling Choice at this track over 1609m in a NW20021L5 on March 24 at $3.99. One of the key runners.
