Yonkers Raceway Race 2 - Race 2
LYONS PAPI ROCK (1) turned in a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on October 6. Has the benefit of a good draw. Leading hope in this comparable race. SWEET JOEL (3) made it two wins from his last six appearances two weeks ago, getting home by 6 metres over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. LYONS GUSTAVOFRING (2) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m. Genuine threat. ROCKNACIOUS (6) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Pocono Downs.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Cooperstown Boy at this track over 1609m in a HGW2BN4PM on September 22 at $2.34. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Strikem at this track over 1609m in a HGW2BN4PM on October 6 at $8.26. Can build on that fine effort last start.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at Pocono Downs, beaten 15 m by Elmer Hanover (1:49.40) in W3-5PM CG on October 3 at $67.70. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 25 m as favourite (Fr8) at Philadelphia (1:51.40) beating Wish You The Best in CGNW3PM on September 24 at $2.10. Cannot be left out of calculations.
