Yonkers Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
POP IT (3) finished sixth last start, beaten 18 metres at this track over 1609m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Finds a suitable assignment and will be a major force. KOURAGEOUS KEY (1) ran fifth last start at Pocono Downs over 1609m, beaten 11 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. HP MOMENTUM (6) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at this track. Can atone. BETTOR BY SEASIDE (8) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 30 m by Kwick Sand (1:54.40) in NW7500L5 on February 16 at $49.11. The run previous 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 25 m by Ima Perfect Choice (1:54.40) in NW10000L5 on February 9 at $27.68. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.
