Yonkers Raceway Race 2 - Race 2
PANETTONE HANOVER (1) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 18 metres into sixth at this track over 1609m. No excuses from this more advantageous draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can bounce back into winning form. GORGEOUS BIG GUY (3) finished eighth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 75 metres, after a strong win at Hoosier Park the run prior. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. ZEBS KRAFTY (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when second at this track over 1609m. Must be included. KWICK SAND A (2) must be respected after scoring last start by a neck at this track over 1609m.

Last start was well beaten into eighth behind Sweet Beach Life at this track over 1609m in a 3-6 YO OPN on June 15 at $79.82. Performed better the start before where he won by 2.25 m (Fr6) at Hoosier Park (1:49.40) beating Tellmeaboutit in OPEN 3 on June 5 at $4.50. Capable of a strong showing.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts. Placed last start 3rd (Fr7) over 1609m at Plainridge Park beaten 3 m by Hunting Zone (1:49.30) in NW10000L4 on June 11 at $16.70. Before that 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at Plainridge Park beaten 1.5 m by Franco Tyson (1:49.10) in NW10000L4 on June 4 at $12.10. Will not find this easy. Not keen.
