Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
MINOTAUR (5) finished fourth two starts ago then registered a comfortable victory last start, scoring by 25 metres over 1609m at Monticello Raceway. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. GOTHIC ROCK (1) finished fifth last start over 1609m at this track nine days ago. This looks a suitable race and a forward showing is anticipated. ADVANCE MAN (3) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish third at this track over 1609m.

Didn't do much at the last run, 7th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten 12 m by Heave Away (1:56.00) in 15000CLM on April 1 at $17.13. Before that 6th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten 25 m by Donttellmenow (1:54.20) in NW5000L5 on March 19 at $48.30. Unlikely to make an impression.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Over The Horizon at this track over 1609m in a 15000CLM on March 23 at $68.35. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Heave Away at this track over 1609m in a 15000CLM on April 1 at $16.30. Has the ability to play a major role.

Last start 8th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 19 m by Heave Away (1:56.00) in 15000CLM on April 1 at $69.27. Two runs back 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 30 m by Shine A Light (1:54.10) in 15000CLM on March 19 at $37.83. Will struggle to compete against the top handful.
