Yonkers Raceway Race 1 - Race 1
KILIMANJARO (4) again drew a wide gate last start and was safely held, beaten 22 metres into eighth at Monticello Raceway over 1609m. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of sharp improvement. MUSCLE DAN (1) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. SOUTHWIND MAC (3) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track two weeks ago.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Kameran Hanover at this track over 1609m in a NAADA W L6 on February 26 at $12.79. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Mr Contestant at this track over 1609m in a NAADA W F on March 5 at $14.32. Capable of testing this line-up.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 8th (Fr8) over 1609m at Monticello Raceway beaten 22 m by Kenobi (1:58.00) in NW900PSL5 on March 11 at $75.15. The run before 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at Monticello Raceway beaten 18 m by Makin Magic Tonite (1:59.10) in OPEN on March 4 at $17.23. Worth another chance. Leading player.

10-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Fr7) over 1609m at Meadowlands beaten 6 m by Labyad Bros (1:56.10) on March 6 at $15.10. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into eighth behind Liberty's Wildcard at Meadowlands over 1609m on February 27 at $16.60. Form reads okay, but out of his depth.
