Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
CURLY JAMES A (8) made it two on the trot last start when he got the cash by 9 metres over 1609m at this track. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. MUSIC HALL (3) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished third at this track over 1609m. WHATS STANLEY GOT A (1) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fifth at this track over 1609m.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 1.5 m (Fr5) at this track (1:54.10) beating Sumomentsomwhere in NW7500L5 on October 27 at $3.01. Two runs back 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 m by Whichwaytothebeach (1:53.20) in NW10151L5 on October 19 at $6.65. Impossible to tip with any confidence.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Neverstopdreamin at this track over 1609m in a NW20000L5 on October 19 at $59.49. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Suite Up Bro at this track over 1609m in a NW15000L5 on October 27 at $2.56. Heading the right way and is a leading contender.

Eight-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1609m. Last start posted a big 9 m win as favourite (Fr4) at this track (1:53.10) beating Iknowbetter in NW20000L5 on October 20 at $1.64. In terrific form and is the one to beat again.
