Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
HEZA RISK TAKER A (2) was struggling to make his mark before the latest appearance when he scored by 0.6 metres over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. DUNKIN (4) was responsible for a far better performance when second up at his latest appearance, finishing second over 1609m at this track. Big chance in this comparable race. HAMMERING HANK (3) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at this track. Can bounce back. CENTURY HEINEKEN (1) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at Tioga Downs two-and-a-half weeks ago.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Joy In Mudville at Tioga Downs over 1609m in a NW3001-4 on June 28 at $1.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Melanion at Tioga Downs over 1609m in a NW4501-4 on July 5 at $6.49. In the mix from the inside draw.

Racing consistently. Last start won by a 0.6 m as favourite (Fr2) at this track (1:53.20) beating Captain Awesome in NW5000L5 on July 10 at $1.08. Hard to beat in this sort of form.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Boston Bound (1:52.40) in NW10000L5 on July 14 at $60.49. At the previous start 7th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 m by Himself (1:52.20) in 40000CLM on June 29 at $65.42. Nicely placed to find a bit of form.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Mac's Delight at this track over 1609m in a NW15000L5 on June 30 at $17.19. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Speaker Of Peace at this track over 1609m in a NW10000L5 on July 13 at $3.40. Can build on that fine effort last start.

Before that 7th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 16 m by Keayang Kamikaze (1:53.10) in NW10000L5 on June 30 at $19.94. Would be better placed in something easier.
