Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5

BECKONING YANKEE (1) was responsible for a good effort at her latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on August 7. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Primary contender in a similar assignment. MILLWOOD BLISS N (7) finished second last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. ILLUSION SEELSTER (4) can break her way into the winner's list after recording a sequence of four top-three finishes, the latest at this track a week ago. ELEGANT A (5) cannot be left out after solid recent performances, the latest a sound third at Tioga Downs over 1609m.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow second behind Beckoning Yankee at this track over 1609m FNW10000L5 last start. Before that was beaten 4.5 metres second again at this track in FMNW5000L5 on July 31. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.

Fair run when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Lady Saturn at Tioga Downs over 1609m in a FM-OPENII on July 30 at $12.05.
