Yonkers Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
VENTURESOME ARDEN N (8) ran sixth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 13 metres. Must overcome a very wide draw. This is a nice drop in class so he is a major player. YOROKOBI N (4) again drew a wide gate last start and was never a threat, beaten 18 metres into fifth at this track over 1609m. Meets a comparable field and he can turn the recent form around. GREG THE LEG (2) is better than his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track. OPTICAL ILLUSION N (6) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1609m at this track.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 18 m by Boiling Oar (1:53.30) in NW7500L5 on March 30 at $31.38. The start before 8th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 24 m by American Dealer (1:55.10) in NW10000L5 on March 23 at $54.72. Anticipating a much better performance this time.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 3 m by Tobins Chester (1:54.10) in NW5000L5 on March 26 at $4.81. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into sixth behind Heinikin Bythebay at Dover Downs over 1609m in a NW6001L5 on March 19 at $89.80. Faces a tough test.
