Yonkers Raceway Race 3 - Race 3
MESSENGER HANOVER (4) added to his recent string of strong performances last start when runner-up over 1609m at Philadelphia, beaten 6 metres. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. KANON LASER DK (5) had a favourable gate and was too good at Philadelphia two runs ago. Drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 12 metres into sixth at Meadowlands over 1609m. Forgive that last effort. Good enough to take out a race like this. LOOKATMEGOAMIGO (1) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at Northfield Park last time out. MANFORCE (6) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track on December 17.

Well-beaten 21 days ago at Philadelphia over 1609m, before that 4th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 24 m by Top Gun Hanover (1:59.30) in W2BNMT4 on December 10 at $15.16. Difficult to enthuse based on recent efforts.

Fair performance when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Benny J at Meadowlands over 1609m in a 4U W2-NW5 on December 18 at $14.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Benny J at Philadelphia over 1609m in a NW5PM on December 31 at $7.20. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 12 m by Exquisite Taste (1:53.10) in 5U W2-NW5 on January 9 at $17.70. Showed ability the run before when he won by a 0.9 m (Fr2) at Philadelphia (1:57.40) beating Flight Of Fritz in NW5PM on December 24 at $3.30. Should be right in the finish.
