Yonkers Raceway Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $29,957

DUNKIN (5) had to dig deep to score last time out over 1609m at this track, getting home by just 0.6 metres. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. THE GREEK FREAK (2) finished eighth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 17 metres, after filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Big chance if he is at his best. LYRICAL GENIUS A (4) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. CHARLIES WISH (3) is close to a win after two successive seconds, the latest over 1609m at Philadelphia.

Solid run when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Smooth Dream at Philadelphia over 1609m in a CG W4-8 on July 19 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Toby Ornot Toby at Philadelphia over 1609m in a CG W3-8 on July 26 at $2.90. Capable of testing this line-up.
