Yonkers Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
COALFORD TOPGUY GB (3) put together some minor placings then raised his game last start to score by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track on April 14. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. His last-start form is good enough to take out a race like this. CADILLAC BAYAMA (4) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 12 metres. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. PANETTONE HANOVER (1) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m. Genuine threat. ESCAPE TO AMERICA (6) must be respected after scoring last start by a neck at this track over 1609m.

The run previous 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 15 m by Curly James (1:53.10) in NW30000L5 on March 23 at $8.48. Finds a nice race to rediscover his best form.

Mixing form recently. Last start was 3rd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 3 m by Escape To America (1:53.10) in NW8251L5 on April 13 at $6.25. Before that beaten 21 metres, sixth at Pocono Downs over 1609m W4-7PM CG on April 4. Likely to find it too tough.
