Al Cimaglia: Yonkers Raceway Late Pick 4 Analysis | Friday, May 10, 2024

Yonkers Raceway has a 10-race card. The $1.00 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 7, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 7 (9:00 PM EST)

1-Karma Seelster (9/5)-Couldn't connect in the Borgata Series but did best this kind on 3-8. Doesn't have big gate speed but Jordan Stratton should get a cozy trip and be in the hunt at the wire.
5-Golden Quest N (2-1)-Winner of 3 straight is a threat landing on the point or coming off cover. Best to respect the winning streak staying intact and could provide more value than the morning line chalk.

Race 8 (9:20 PM EST)

3-Silk Cloud A (7/2)-Picked up a win as the chalk caved on the lead, but don't discount the effort. Stratton provided a perfect steer, did close in 55.1 and could double up at a fair price.
5-Lit De Rose (2-1)-This time Pat Lachance is going to have the pedal down and take control when the wings fold. At least that is what makes sense to me. If so, that puts the mare in a position to win for the 3rd time in the last 4 starts.

Race 9 (9:40 PM EST)

1-True Blue Hanover (2-1)-This 4-year-old wired the last group and made it look easy. Takes on a couple of older foes who could be a challenge, so this won't be a cake walk. Does well racing on the point and should find her way on the lead when the wings fold.
4-Uptown Hanover (5/2)-The Tyler Buter-Jeff Cullipher combo has clicked for 25% winners and this veteran mare could be forwardly placed early on. Should be a main player with a sharp steer.

Race 10 (10:00 PM EST)

2-Diamante Trio It (3-1)-Bumps up after landing in the pocket leaving from post 7. There are no standouts in this group and will take a swing with George Brennan leaving from the inside.
5-Swiss House Onfire (12-1)-This is a dropper in a field where half the group is moving up in class. Lands back at the level of its last picture on 3-1. Will look for an aggressive try from Jimmy Pants. He should be out and rolling from the word "go".
