Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9

STERLING CHOICE (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fifth over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can grab a well-deserved win. ARODA N (2) won three back at Tioga Downs and registered another victory last start, scoring by a neck over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. CHASE H HANOVER (7) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago. CONTROL ROCKS (6) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when third at Pocono Downs over 1609m.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Downbythewater at this track over 1609m in a NW23101L5 on July 7 at $11.85. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Mac's Delight at this track over 1609m in a NW33876L5 on July 20 at $19.34. Going along well. Top prospects.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Dandy Ideal at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a WO25000LT on July 11 at $32.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing third behind Captinhammerhead at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a WO25000LT on July 18 at $11.10. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.
