Yonkers Raceway Race 5

Race 5

Stake: $41,284

SWEET BEACH LIFE (3) gave his opponents no chance last start when he cruised to a 19 metres victory over 1609m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This looks a sterner test than last time but he is good enough to take this out. MANFERNO (1) won at this track two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. THE IDEAL DANCER (2) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. SHERLOCK (4) is worth some thought based on his third over 1609m at this track two runs ago.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 8 m by Dunkin (1:51.20) in 3-6 YO OPN on July 7 at $20.50. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 9 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:51.40) beating Century Endeavor in 40000CLM on June 30 at $2.60. Rates highly.
