Yonkers Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
CURLY JAMES A (4) turned in another fine effort last start when he scored over 1609m at this track, coming in 2.25 metres ahead of his rivals. Big chance based on recent form. PAXAMILLION (7) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 1609m at this track. No reason the run cannot continue. ROCKIN JUKEBOX (2) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.

Last start solid effort when 3rd (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 12 m by Ever Hoping (1:51.30) in 40000CLM on July 27 at $2.58. Two runs back won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:53.20) beating Ameritric in 40000CLM on July 20 at $2.13. Makes plenty of appeal.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing second behind Ever Hoping at this track over 1609m in a 40000CLM on July 27 at $5.72. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Ameritric at this track over 1609m in a 40000CLM on August 3 at $2.32. Rates highly. Big chance.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr3) at this track (1:52.20) beating Mind Hunter in 30000CLM on August 8 at $1.29. Two runs back posted a big 11 m win as favourite (Fr2) at this track (1:53.20) beating Movin' On Up in 20000CLM on August 1 at $1.08. Capable of a strong showing.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.5 m fourth behind Paxamillion at this track over 1609m 40000CLM last start. Before that was beaten 1.5 metres third again at this track same class on August 3. Racing well and not without merit.
