Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5

HEZA CHARTTOPPER A (2) was racing well before the latest appearance when he scored by 0.6 metres over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. BACKSTREET SHADOW (4) finished sixth last start over 1609m at this track. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. FORWARD FLASH (7) disappointed last time but is a chance based on a good win over 1609m at this track two runs back.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 13 m by Chase H Hanover (1:51.30) in NW30000L5 on August 10 at $39.15. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.5 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:51.30) beating Howlenthehills in NW23251L5 on July 21 at $2.87. One of the better hopes.
