Yonkers Raceway Race 6

Race 6

Stake: $36,952

AMBUSHED (4) was expected to do a lot more last time out when sixth, beaten 6 metres, over 1609m at this track. Form prior to that was solid, including a sound second over 1609m at this track two starts ago. The recent run not a true indication. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. YS SENSATIONALCITY (7) had been out of the money in recent runs before the latest appearance when she scored by 1.5 metres over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Her last-start form is good enough to take out a race like this. GOLDEN QUEST (2) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m. Genuine threat. RACEY RACH (3) is in the mix following a fifth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
