Yonkers Raceway Race 2 - Race 2
BACCHUS BLUE CHIP (1) Picked up late to win last time at Saratoga Harness and proven performer at this distance in the past. Won last 2 on the bounce and promising career start. Hard to overlook. BABYLON BLUE CHIP (3) Was overpowered late when 3rd beaten by 9.75m last run at Saratoga Harness and suited at this distance in the past. Displays good tactical speed. Good career start. Classy enough for this field and is one of the major players. ITS NEWS TO ME (4) Close to a win last start at Batavia Downs and solid career start. Leon Bailey and Chuck Connor Jr make an imposing pair. In good form this campaign. Solid place bet prospects. BILLS MAFIA (5) Crept into 4th last start at Batavia Downs. Possesses very good finishing speed. Not out of this.

Was $19.00 and finished 6th last time at Monticello Raceway. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Needs too much luck.

Close up last start at Batavia Downs and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Leon Bailey has a good track record with the Chuck Connor Jr stable. Reasonable chance.

Closed off nicely when 4th last start at Batavia Downs. Will be trying to topple them late. Nice price for the value seekers.

Picked up some ground to run 5th last start at Batavia Downs. Should be swooping on the field late. Modest hope.
