Yonkers Raceway Race 9 - Race 9
HANK THE HUNK (4) is racing well with four top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at this track over 1609m. Recent efforts are good enough to win a race of this calibre. SMOOTH LOU (2) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. TWO FACED (3) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.

Didn't do much last time out, 6th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 16 m by Samhara (1:54.30) in NW7500L5 on March 2 at $34.42. Before that 5th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 m by Intimidation (1:56.40) in NW7500L5 on February 12 at $37.38. This race looks too tough.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 22 m by Hurrikanekingjames (1:56.10) in 20000CLM on February 25 at $44.94.
