Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Stake: $50,918

DIRE STRAITS (5) finished third last start, beaten 21 metres at this track over 1609m. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. CHULO (4) added to his recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 metres. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. GHOSTLY CASPER (6) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 14 metres at this track over 1609m. KEG STAND (1) is usually thereabouts and must be included following a last start fifth at this track.
