Yonkers Raceway Race 4

Race 4

Stake: $41,990

DIRE STRAITS (4) made it two in succession last start when he got the cash by 15 metres over 1609m at this track. Must raise the bar but the hat-trick is not out of the question. BELLISSIMO FACE (6) finished sixth last start over 1609m at Philadelphia, beaten 19 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. Meets a comparable field and he is capable of another bold performance. LUCKY MUM (3) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 1609m at this track a week ago. DIAMANTE TRIO (1) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1609m at this track.
