Yonkers Raceway Race 6 - Race 6

EVER HOPING A (1) scored at Philadelphia three runs ago but has been unplaced in two subsequent runs, the latest when fifth over 1609m at Dover Downs, beaten 15 metres. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of a strong performance. LYONS BENJAMIN (6) has recorded two wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Performed well once again when second at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.6 metres. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. HEAVE AWAY (4) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track five weeks ago. DELIGHTFUL DUDE N (5) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1609m at Monticello Raceway on January 13.

Freshened-up since the last run 35 days ago. Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fourth behind Themaskedcrusadr at this track over 1609m 25000CLM last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres fourth again at this track same class on December 10. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.
