Yonkers Raceway has a 12-race card. The $1.00 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 9, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 9 (9:40 PM EST)

1-Delightful Terror (7/2)-Makes the 4th start off the bench and this time goes from post 8 to the rail. The Corey Stratton trainee drops again, and the brother's team up for the 1st time since returning to action. Best to respect chances versus this crew and comes back quickly this time which is unlike the other starts since returning.
5-Gamblingterror (2-1)-This is the 2nd race since dropping to this level. Brent Holland takes the lines tonight and the positive driver change could make a winning difference. Expecting an aggressive drive once the wings fold.

Race 10 (10:00 PM EST)

1-Down The Pike Mike (2-1)-As is the case for this sequence in general, this is a formless race. Not going to look further than a logical play with Jason Bartlett from the rail. Put in an even effort at Tioga on 7-27 in the 1st race since 11-3-2023. The 5-year-old does decent work at Yonkers (29-5-4-4) and the Jenny Melander barn has been clicking in the past 30 days. Comes back quickly and meets a soft bunch.

Race 11 (10:20 PM EST)

1-Bri Express N (5/2)-Faced this kind on 7-5, got on the engine from the 2-hole and faded down the lane to finished 2nd. That was on a "good" track, is 0-5 on a wet surface and has hit the board only once. George Brennan steered then and will be between the pipes tonight. Could get on the point and not look back.
4-Onederfulbeach (3-1)-Makes the 4th start since joining the Stratton barn and raced from the back in last after drawing post 8. Stayed inside after starting way back and paced the back half in 55.2. Could be sitting on a big try and should be a fair price.

Race 12 (10:40 PM EST)

6-Rocknroll Annie (10-1)-The veteran mare raced well to just miss leaving from post 7 versus this kind. Bartlett will probably be aggressive when the wings fold. Could land on the point or in the pocket and either trip could lead to a picture.
7-Racy Roxy A (6-1)-Comes off even efforts versus better but this looks like a wake-up spot. Jordan Stratton sticks may have met a beatable field and should offer a square price.

2.00 Pick 4

1,5/1/1,4/6,7
Total Bet=$16
