Yonkers Raceway Race 9

Race 9

Stake: $64,404

WALKIN ON SUNSHINE (8) has recorded three wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Performed well once again when third at her latest appearance over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 11 metres. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. SILK CLOUD (7) made it two in a row last start when she got the cash by 0.6 metres over 1609m at this track. Must overcome a very wide draw. Meets a comparable field and she can take care of this line-up. LIT DE ROSE (5) has a strong record here which is significant. Finished second over 1609m at this track last time out. COACHELLABOUND (4) is the best of the rest after finishing sixth over 1609m at this track last time out.
