Yonkers Raceway Race 3

Race 3

Stake: $508,334

FRAGMENT (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 1.5 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at Tioga Downs. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a tougher race but a big run is on the cards. COOPERSTOWN BOY (2) turned in another fine effort last start when he scored over 1609m at Batavia Downs, coming in 6 metres ahead of his rivals. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. KNOXVILLE (3) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fifth at Tioga Downs over 1609m. HUNTING GLORY (5) must be considered after he finished third over 1609m at Tioga Downs two weeks ago.

Solid performance when a close second behind Cooperstown Boy at this track over 1609m in a NYSS 3CGP on August 13 at $1.05. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Fearless Partners at Tioga Downs over 1609m in a EBC on August 30 at $1.18. In the mix from the inside draw.
