Yonkers Raceway Race 7 - Race 7

STERLING CHOICE (1) made it two wins from his last four appearances two weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 metres over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Steps up a level but he is good enough to cope. HOWLENTHEHILLS (2) is in good form at present. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1609m at Batavia Downs, beaten 6 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Big chance based on those recent efforts. ENDOFSTORY (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a neck at Pocono Downs over 1609m. CAPTAIN MOORE A (5) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at Pocono Downs. Can atone.

Has been racing well this preparation and showed plenty of improvement following August 3 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a 0.6 m (Fr5) at this track (1:52.20) beating Always Bet On Me in NW20000L5 on August 18 at $6.19. This race will be harder than that win. Needs to find extra to beat these.
