Yonkers Raceway Race 2 - Race 2
SMOOTH LOU (4) turned in a better run last start when third over 1609m at this track, beaten 24 metres. Recent efforts are good enough to win a race of this calibre. OZONE BLUE CHIP (2) hasn't been too far off them of late and again performed well last time over 1609m at this track, finishing fourth and just 7 metres from the winner. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Good enough to take out a race like this. MOVIN' ON UP (5) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. METAMAN (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1609m at this track on April 13.
