Yonkers Raceway Race 2 - Race 2
COOPERSTOWN BOY (3) has put together a fine sequence of results and kept it up last time out with a strong win at Batavia Downs over 1609m. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat again. LYONS GUSTAVOFRING (2) is the next elect off a last-start win by 1.5 metres at this track over 1609m. SWEET JOEL (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start eighth over 1609m at Philadelphia on September 6. Something for the Multiples: SIGNAL CALLER (6)

Last start 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at Philadelphia, beaten 40 m by Toast Of The Town (1:50.10) in PASS CONS on September 6 at $103.50. At his previous start 6th (Fr2) over 1609m at The Meadows beaten 20 m by Al Papi (1:50.30) in PASS-3YOCG on August 28 at $41.90. Not out of the equation.

Last start good run when 3rd (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 m by Lyons Gustavofring (1:55.30) in HGW2BN4PM on September 15 at $21.97. Two runs back won by a 0.6 m (Fr1) at this track (1:55.00) beating Rough Deal in CHGNW2PM on September 1 at $6.75. Racing very well. Strong claims.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Toast Of The Town at Philadelphia over 1609m in a PASS CONS on September 6 at $40. Then a handy effort when a close second behind George's Wish at this track over 1609m in a HGW2BN4PM on September 15 at $20.82. Heading the right way and is a leading contender.
