Yonkers Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
LYRICAL GENIUS A (1) has been excellent of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 0.6 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. LUCAPELO A (4) has been racing well of late. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 1.5 metres. Won't find this any harder and he can take care of this line-up. AMERITRIC (2) is better than his last-start eighth over 1609m at this track. INTIMIDATION (3) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Eight-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start won by a 0.6 m as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:53.40) beating Alta Classic in 30000CLM on March 18 at $2.07. In terrific form and is the one to beat again.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Bonaparte at Pocono Downs over 1609m in a 30000CLHC on March 14 at $17.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing third behind Jett Star at this track over 1609m in a 40000CLM on March 23 at $2.53. Has the ability to play a major role.
