Yonkers Raceway Race 3 - Race 3
PAYBACK MONI (5) resumes after great success last prep, winning on 13 occasions and culminating in success over 1609m at this track on June 11. Well-placed to pick up where she left off when last in work. WALSPEA (7) had to call on all reserves to salute last time out over 1609m at Meadowlands, getting home by just 0.9 metres. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish again. MIRACLE MAVEN (3) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 0.6 metres at this track over 1609m. ALWAYS A STORY (4) is next best following a run of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track a week ago.

Well beaten last start by Miracle Maven, a rival who she faces again; when 30 metres seventh at this track over 1609m in a FM INV race on August 20. Can't see her featuring.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Hillexotic at this track over 1609m in a INVITATION on August 13 at $11.45. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Miracle Maven at this track over 1609m in a FM INV on August 20 at $11.12. Has the ability to play a major role.

Resuming after a spell of 11 weeks. Finished off last preparation recording by 6 m as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:53.00) beating Always A Story in FM INV on June 11 at $1.41. Previous preparation first-up posted a big 8 m win as favourite (Fr3) at The Meadows (1:54.40) beating Tady Hill in FMNW2EXTPM on April 30 2025 at $2. Capable of testing this line-up.
