Yonkers Raceway Race 3

Race 3

Stake: $21,835

METAMAN (5) produced a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1609m at this track on May 31. Primary contender in a similar assignment. JUST PLAIN LOCO (2) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 80 metres into eighth at this track over 1609m. Big chance from this favourable draw if anywhere near his best. WAR DAN DELIGHT (3) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fourth at this track over 1609m. HEAVE AWAY (4) is in the mix after turning in a better effort last start to finish second at this track over 1609m.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Posted a big 4 m win (Fr4) at this track (1:56.30) beating Heave Away in 15000CLM on May 31 at $55. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Lindas In Heaven at Monticello Raceway over 1609m in a NW500PSL5 on May 21 at $12.80.
