Yonkers Raceway Race 9

Race 9

Prize Money: $23,743

THONG CONTROL (3) had to call on all reserves to score last time out over 1609m at this track, getting home by just 0.6 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can salute once again. THEFLYINGROCK (1) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last five starts, most recently recording a third over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Won't find this any harder and he can go right on with the job. SOUTHWIND PETYR (4) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at this track last time out. ITALIAN LAD N (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Ever M at this track over 1609m in a 25000CLM on April 23 at $4.36. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Thong Control at this track over 1609m in a 25000CLM on April 30 at $1.77. Perfectly placed to win again.
