Yonkers Raceway Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $20,112

SOUTHSIDE BAR (2) ran fifth last start at Northfield Park over 1609m, beaten 20 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. SWISS HOUSE ONFIRE (1) finished eighth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 25 metres, after a modest seventh at this track the run prior. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Finds a nice race and can bounce back to form. WINDSONG PIONEER (5) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. MAMY WATA (4) is the next elect off a last-start win by 2.25 metres at Philadelphia over 1609m.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at Northfield Park, beaten 20 m by Whiskey Finish (1:57.00) in NW3500L4 on April 15 at $9.30. Showed ability the race before when he won by 2.25 m (Fr1) at Northfield Park (1:58.10) beating Neverlose Felix in NW2500L4 on April 8 at $2.70. Capable of taking this out.

10-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Won by 2.25 m (Fr8) at this track (2:01.30) beating Big Charlie Moran in NAADA S L7 on April 30 at $40.09. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Empire Builder at Monticello Raceway over 1609m in a NAADA S L6 on April 22 at $37.55. Will be tough to make an impression against this lot.
