Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
CAVIART LOTUS (1) was struggling to make his mark before the latest appearance when he scored by 7 metres over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. That latest effort is good enough to take out a race like this. SON OF THE SHARK A (3) did not complete the course at his last start at this track. Finished fourth, beaten 9 metres, over 1609m at Philadelphia the start before. Well-placed to find some form. WATTSUP SUNSHINE A (4) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. CAPTAIN FEAR (8) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
