Yonkers Raceway Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $25,678

IDEALINFUN (4) form has been hard to fault. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 13 metres, on the back of a couple of wins, the most recent at this track. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. DOC'S LOVE (3) resumes after great success last prep, winning on three occasions and culminating in a seventh over 1609m at this track on February 17. Has the benefit of a good draw. Will have plenty of admirers. FORTUNADA (1) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago. TALENT TO SPARE A (2) is worth some thought based on her third over 1609m at this track two runs ago.

Resuming after six months off the scene. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into seventh behind Shangri La Hanover at this track over 1609m in a FM20000CLM on February 17 at $4.46. Previous preparation first-up won by a 0.9 m (Fr6) at The Red Mile (1:54.10) beating Mrs Madison County in NW2PM-CL on August 6 2025 at $5.17. Looks the testing material.

Last start good run when 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 13 m by Fight Not Flight (1:53.10) in FM20000CLM on July 30 at $2.49. Two runs back won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr2) at this track (1:55.20) beating Yuengling in FM20000CLM on June 18 at $2.22. Going nicely and looks sure to be in the finish.

Is on a seven-day back-up and has been racing consistently with 3 consecutive minor placings. Fair effort last start 3rd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 24 m by Bout Damn Time (1:54.10) in FM20000CLM on August 1 at $3.66. Not sure she can repeat the dose in this tricky assignment.
