Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Stake: $29,588

DANDY'S MERCY (1) won at Pocono Downs two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at her latest appearance over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 4 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Tackles a similar assignment and she can get back to the winner's list. TWIN B SUNKISSED (5) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 5 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. Meets a similar line up and she is a strong winning hope. A FEW CHOICE WORDS (6) is in the mix following a fifth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at Meadowlands. MAN DONTFORGET ME (4) has trialled three times since her last run so expect she is forward enough to run well fresh from a break.
