Yonkers Raceway Race 1 - Race 1
GOOG EYES (5) Dashed home to win last run at Saratoga Harness. Can't knock the form winning 2 on the trot. Should come to hand quickly. Cannot underestimate. SELF PORTRAIT (2) Ran home strongly to win last time at Buffalo Raceway. Should muster plenty of early toe. Looks to be value. ACOUSTIC BLUE CHIP (7) Strong performance to win by a neck last run at Pocono Downs. Looks set to run a place. DW'S CHA-CHING (3) Close up last run at Pocono Downs. Matt Kakaley booked to drive here. Will be motoring home late. Not out of this.

Narrowly denied victory last start at Saratoga Harness and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Displays very good closing speed. Form has been improving over recent runs. Can't entertain a bet.

Flew home to win last time at Buffalo Raceway. Will be positive in the run early. Capable of winning this.

Missed by a narrow margin last run at Pocono Downs. Matt Kakaley takes over today. Will be trying to topple them late. Looks like solid value.

Came in 4th last start at Buffalo Raceway. Hard to see it being good enough.

Finished well when winning last run at Saratoga Harness. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 runs. Expecting to settle positively. Driver Jason J Bartlett adds value. Absolutely right in this.

Narrowly denied victory last run at Buffalo Raceway. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely.

Was all too good winning by a neck last run at Pocono Downs. Worth a serious look.
