Yonkers Raceway Race 3 - Race 3
THE RASCAL N (7) finished second two starts ago then recorded a comfortable victory last time out, scoring by 14 metres over 1609m at this track. Has to contend with a very wide draw. Primary contender in this comparable race. BALLROOM AFFAIR (6) resumes from a spell of ten weeks after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid second over 1609m at Philadelphia. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. CALLMEBIGPAPI (1) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. SWEET JOEL (3) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track last time out.
