Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
SARANAC BLUE CHIP (1) produced a better effort at his latest appearance when he scored by 4 metres over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Recent effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. GOTHIC ROCK (3) produced a better effort last time out when second over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can go right on with the job. SMOOTH LOU (2) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 1609m at this track last time out. VEGAS STRIP N (5) disappointed last time but is a chance based on a good second over 1609m at this track two runs back.
