Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
LUCAPELO A (2) has been racing very well and deserved his victory last start, scoring by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. His last-start form is good enough to put him right in the finish. LYRICAL GENIUS A (8) added to his recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 metres. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Meets a comparable field and he can go one better without surprising. ALL ALONE (3) should be at his peak for this. Finished second over 1609m at this track at the latest appearance a week ago. Sure to give the top fancies plenty to think about. AMERITRIC (4) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Didn't do much last time out, 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 11 m by Lucapelo (1:54.10) in 40000CLM on March 30 at $52.33. Before that 7th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 m by Jett Star (1:56.10) in 40000CLM on March 23 at $47.41. Happy to risk.

In good form recently. Last start won by 2.25 m (Fr4) at this track (1:54.10) beating Lyrical Genius in 40000CLM on March 30 at $5.06. Sure to prove tough to beat again.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind American Dealer at this track over 1609m in a NW7500L5 on March 16 at $5.86. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Boiling Oar at this track over 1609m in a NW7500L5 on March 30 at $3.60. Rates highly. Big chance.
