Yonkers Raceway Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $23,743

RITSON (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4.5 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Won't find this any harder and he can grab that well-deserved win. MUSICAL RIDE (3) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 21 metres into fifth at this track over 1609m. Perfectly drawn and is sure to be there at the finish. NO DRAMA PLEASE (1) is the next elect off a last-start win by 3 metres at this track over 1609m. BONTONI DEGATO S (2) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him finish third over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Chapheart at this track over 1609m in a NW15000L5 on May 15 at $10.08. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Torrone at this track over 1609m in a NW10226L5 on May 22 at $16.94. Can build on that fine effort last start.

Mixing form recently. Last start was 3rd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 4.5 m by Incantation (1:57.20) in NW8226L5 on May 22 at $9.92. Before that beaten 60 metres, seventh at this track over 1609m FM INV on March 26. This appears outside her grasp.
