Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Stake: $24,442

FIGHT NOT FLIGHT (2) registered a strong performance last start when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Won't find this any harder and she can take this out. HUNTS FLOWER (4) finished second last start, beaten a neck, in a far better performance at this track over 1609m. Her recent form is good enough to win a race of this calibre. JIVE DANCING A (6) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at this track nine days ago. CANNERY ROW (5) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 1609m.
