Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5

MISSISSIPPI STORM (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 4.5 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Won't find this any harder and he can grab that well-deserved win. CHAPHEART (5) made it two wins from his last three appearances a week ago, getting home by 6 metres over 1609m at this track. Primary contender in this comparable race. SEVEN LAYER (3) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at this track a week ago. FRANK LEAHY (7) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish third at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Bjm's Lil Man at this track over 1609m in a NW16981L5 on September 18 at $29.38. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Laferraridmanche at this track over 1609m in a NW15000L5 on September 25 at $7.19. Capable of a strong showing.
