Yonkers Raceway Race 8 - Race 8
CHULO (3) ran sixth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 6 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. It doesn't get any easier but he is good enough to take this out. DIAMANTE TRIO (4) finished seventh last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 40 metres, after finishing second at this track the run prior. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. SKY BOX (2) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing second at this track over 1609m. OLIVER THE GREAT (1) is in the mix at his first run since finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track 11 weeks ago.

Returns from the paddock. Previously first up won by 2.25 m (Fr8) at Pocono Downs (1:56.10) beating Knowyoucando in NW4PM on March 10 at $10.80. One of the better hopes.
