Yonkers Raceway Race 3 - Race 3
BASTONATA BLUECHIP (2) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last five starts including a second most recently at Batavia Downs over 1609m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Has the class to take this out. PRIMACY STATION (5) did a good job to finish second two starts ago then registered a comfortable victory last start, scoring by 11 metres over 1609m at Batavia Downs. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player again. ROSE RUN COWBOY (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 4 metres at Saratoga over 1609m. MAN ON A HUNT (1) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at Batavia Downs eight days ago.
