Yonkers Raceway Race 5 - Race 5

HIMSELF N (5) has been racing well of late. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.9 metres. Good enough to take out a race like this. HARD TO FORGET (6) is racing in outstanding form with three wins and two minor placings from the past five outings. Produced yet another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at Plainridge Park, adding to a string of recent minor placings. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. HEZA CHARTTOPPER A (8) has a strong record here so must be a chance on the back of a good win over 1609m at this track last time. JACKSON COOPER (3) is worth some thought based on his third over 1609m at Plainridge Park two runs ago.
