Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5
ACOUSTIC BLUE CHIP (2) finished eighth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 130 metres, after a modest eighth at Tioga Downs the run prior. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field and he can finish a lot closer this time. RAUCOUS (5) ran fourth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 35 metres. Expected to run well. GLITTERATI (4) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 1609m at this track last time out. PINE BUSH MIRACLE (3) is worth some thought despite her last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on September 30.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Stir The Pot at Philadelphia over 1609m in a NW1PM on September 10 at $2.80. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Sv Mr T at this track over 1609m in a NW2PM on September 30 at $52.91. In fine form. Big chance.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 8th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, well beaten by Sv Mr T (1:55.40) in NW2PM on September 30 at $4.35. At the previous start 8th (Fr4) over 1609m at Tioga Downs beaten 20 m by Number Seven (1:56.10) in NY EXCEL on September 19 at $31.64. Good enough to make amends in this line-up.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Chant (1:57.30) in NW2PM on September 23 at $71.75. The run previous 7th (Fr3) over 1609m at The Red Mile, beaten 40 m by Numanthia (1:51.30) in GOLDENROD on September 9 at $52.20. No surprise to see her bounce back to form.
