Yonkers Raceway finishes the week with a 9-race card. The $2.00 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 6, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 6 (8:25 PM EDT)

4-Donttellmenow (2-1)-Beaten odds on chalk has a chance to make amends versus this field. Dan Dube takes over for Jason Bartlett and that should help the price. Has the gate speed to get the top or a pocket ride in a field that isn't salty.
6-Rockinbilly'sDream (4-1)-Came 1st over and was in the mix down the stretch but faded to finish 3rd at 20-1. Showed some determination for the 1st time since being claimed on 3-19 and will look for the upswing to continue.

Race 7 (8:45 PM EDT)

2-Vespa N (7/2)-Got an efficient trip and was able to roll by down the lane. Paced a .56 back half and could get a similar trip leaving from the inside again. Mark MacDonald takes the lines and should offer a square price.

Race 8 (9:05 PM EDT)

3-Ma Isabelle (8/5)-Beat this kind 2 back and then shipped to PcD and took another picture. Comes back at the same level as when last here and could keep winning for team Lachance.
4-Shes A Shoe In (5/2)-Ray Schnittker owns and trains the Greenshoe filly making her 3-year-old debut. The qualifier on 4-25 at YR was nothing special. But was well staked and beat some nice 2-year-olds last year. Faces some older gals here but could be a player if dialed on high.

Race 9 (9:25 PM EDT)

6-Just Rosas Luck (5/2)-Makes the 1st start after a claim for the DiDomenico stable and George Brennan gets the call. This barn posts 24% winners following a claim. Willing to toss last, the trip was bumpy and should fit nicely with this crew. Cashes checks on a regular basis with this kind and an aggressive steer should happen as soon as the wings fold.

$4 Late Pick 4

4,6/2/3,4/6
Total Bet=$16
