Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $117,689

SHARP SEVEN (2) got the job done in impressive style last start to score by 24 metres at Monticello Raceway over 1609m, that run following a fourth two starts back at Meadowlands. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role again. WHO DARES WINS (1) missed the placings for the second time in a row last start when 50 metres away in fourth over 1609m at Monticello Raceway. Recent form includes a win at Saratoga three starts back on July 21. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a nice race and can turn things around. MY PHILOMENE (3) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 7 metres at Monticello Raceway over 1609m. STORYBOOK LOVE (5) could only finish ninth over 1609m at Meadowlands most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.
