Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
MYSWEETBOYMAX (7) had been out of the money in recent runs before the latest appearance when he scored by 4.5 metres over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Won't find this any harder and he can make it two on the trot. PLEASELETMEKNOW (1) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1609m at Pocono Downs two-and-a-half weeks ago. CAPTAIN BATBOY (2) is open to further improvement at his third run back from a spell after getting home last time out over 1609m at Philadelphia.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at Pocono Downs beaten 25 m by Cranbourne (1:51.40) in NW9500L5 on May 9 at $18.80. The start before 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at The Meadows beaten 13 m by Lunar (1:51.20) in NW9500L4 on May 2 at $7.70. Nicely placed to return to form.

Last start won by 9 m (Fr4) at Philadelphia (1:53.00) beating Bullville Stephano in NW2500L5 on May 17 at $3. Going well enough to figure in the finish again.
