Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
THEOBALD (4) was out of the money two runs back at this track then improved sharply last start to score by 9 metres over 1609m at the same circuit. Primary contender in this comparable race. BEERSNSUNSHINE DEO (7) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at her last four starts including a second most recently at this track over 1609m. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Tackles a similar assignment and she can go right on with the job. SIX QUESTIONS (1) is in the mix following a sixth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. DRINKING PROBLEMS (2) will be cherry-ripe after three runs back from a spell, the latest effort a second at Philadelphia three-and-a-half weeks ago.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 22 m by Theobald (1:57.30) in W2BNMT4 on December 17 at $46.61. At the previous start 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 25 m by Top Gun Hanover (1:56.40) in W2BNMT4 on December 3 at $70.36. Can turn things around in this suitable contest.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Top Gun Hanover at this track over 1609m in a W2BNMT4 on December 10 at $86.57. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing second behind Theobald at this track over 1609m in a W2BNMT4 on December 17 at $3.89. Nicely placed to take this out.

Well-beaten 42 days ago at this track over 1609m, and two back 4th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 20 m by Top Gun Hanover (1:56.40) in W2BNMT4 on December 3 at $19.08. Recent efforts only moderate - hard to see him featuring in the finish.
