Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
CYRUS N (1) has had four runs this prep without filling a placing. Was again unable to find the frame last time when he finished seventh over 1609m at Pocono Downs, beaten 45 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. SMOOTH LOU (6) was once again right in the mix last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 metres. Tackles a similar assignment and he can go one better without surprising. OVER THE HORIZON (4) finished seventh last start over 1609m at this track. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. HUGH HESTON (3) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at Pocono Downs, beaten 45 m by Caviart Camden (1:51.20) in 20000CLHC on March 21 at $21.80. The run previous 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Jett Star (1:53.10) in 30000CLM on March 9 at $63.02. Suitably placed and can bounce back.
