Yonkers Raceway Race 7 - Race 7
THE GREEK FREAK (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 0.9 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Won't find this any harder and he can find winning ways. KWICK SAND A (4) finished ninth last start over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 50 metres, after a good third at Meadowlands the run prior. This should be an easier assignment so he is in the right race to return to form. SPEAKER OF PEACE (3) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. FEELIN WESTERN (1) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Monticello Raceway. Can atone.

Last start 4th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.9 m by Really Bright (1:52.40) in NW10000L5 on June 9 at $1.62. Before that, a game effort when 3rd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 m by Panettone Hanover (1:52.10) in NW16751L5 on June 2 at $38.70. Has the right credentials to take this out.

Last start was well beaten into ninth behind Voukefalas at Meadowlands over 1609m in a NW15000L5F on June 6 at $51. Performed better the start before with a game effort when 3rd (Fr7) over 1609m at Meadowlands beaten 3 m by Federer (1:50.30) in NW15000L5 on May 30 at $7.60. Capable of a strong showing.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by a neck (Fr3) at this track (1:53.30) beating Gingras Beach in NW7921L5 on June 9 at $4.87. Hard to leave out on current form. Must be considered.

Nine-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 2nd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, beaten 3 m by Jett Star (1:54.10) in NW7841L5 on June 2 at $17.64. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into sixth behind Wavemaker at this track over 1609m in a NW7500L5 on May 26 at $57.50. Tricky assignment.
