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

Race 7 (9:00 PM EST)

1-Chillin Bythe Pool (8-1)-Willing to toss the last race versus $50k claimers, gets needed class relief and should get away in good shape off the gate. Brent Holland gets the nod and he is posting 22% winners with the Tom Fanning barn. Does well racing at the top of the stack and that trip works here.
2-Jenden Strike A (9/2)-Can show gate speed at times and should be in the mix with this crew. Team Cushing entry has hit the board in 2 of 4 races at Yonkers but hasn't taken a picture. Could get the job done tonight with a sharp steer.
4-Fade Out (8/5)-Recent form has been dull but dropped and raced better in last at Philly. Has won 8 of 26 here and if dialed on high should have his way with this field. But the price will be small and can't fully trust.

Race 8 (9:20 PM EST)

1-No Turning Back (9/5)-Only raced once in May, on 5-30, and hasn't done much since returning. Showed a bit of life last time and drops to the lowest level in a long time. Jason Bartlett takes the lines and has been off since 6-21. Willing to use and expecting the price to be better than the morning line.
5-Anjeliki (2-1)-Joins the Travis Alexander barn and makes its Yonkers debut. Recent form has been dull but did race better in the last start at the Mea on 6-21. Joe B gets the call and this will be a class test. Will respect the connections in a race without much form and too many question marks.
7-Street Gossip (6-1)-This is the level where the 6-year-old could be heard from. Drops to the same class as its last win on May 3, which was at Yonkers. The post helps the price, raced better in the last start, and could surprise if Austin Siegelman works a close-up stalking trip.

Race 9 (9:40 PM EST)

4-Immanuel K S (9/5)-Keeps dropping looking for its 1st picture (10-0-4-2) and in the last race was bet down to 3/2 despite being off 3 weeks. Will respect connections (Bartlett-Engblom) but should be a short price, and is only 1-14 at YR.
6-For A Dreamer (5-1)-Drops after almost wiring the field on 6-21. The Laterza barn has been cold but improved last time and this is a winnable race. Not sure the 5-1 morning line holds up, could land on the point and not look back.

Race 10 (10:00 PM EST)

2-Bri Express N (9/2)-Bri gets class and post relief in her 4th start since shipping in from Philly. George Brennan sticks and my take is he will be on the point or in the pocket. Either trip could work when facing this bunch.
4-Sweetest Belle (8/5)-Broke stride and was put away in the beginning of May until the last start on 6-28. Faced easier in last, went off at 4/5 and finished 2nd. Will probably be a short price again but has hit the board in 5 of 12 at Yonkers with 2 wins. Could cash the top check if improves in the 2nd start off the bench. Using but a small price is tough to take.
