Yonkers Raceway Race 11 - Race 11
SHINE A LIGHT (5) made it three wins on the trot when he scored by 17 metres last time out here at this trip. It doesn't get any easier but he is good enough to take this out. METAMAN (1) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. TAKE A CLOSER LOOK (4) is better than his last-start eighth over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Rose Run Astro at this track over 1609m in a 3-6YO20CLM on March 12 at $4.86. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Shine A Light at this track over 1609m in a 15000CLM on March 19 at $19.43. Can build on that fine effort last start.
