Yonkers Raceway has a 9-race card. The $1.00 Pick 5 with a $10,000 guaranteed pool rolls in Race 5. 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)

2-Soho Santorini A (10-1)-Aussie bred put in an even effort in what appeared to be a needed start. Tonight, gets some class relief, post relief, and this will be the 2nd time for Lasix. Went the back half in .55 and should be forwardly placed throughout. The price is right to take a swing in a race without a true standout.
5-Hazelville (3-1)-Took a picture on 9-1 then bumped up to this level but was stuck with post 7 after winning the last race from post 8. Brent Holland returns for his 3rd straight steer and could be sitting on a big try.

Race 7 (8:45 PM EDT)

2-Twiggs Pub (10-1)-Price shot goes from Post 7 to post 2 and needs a top of the stack trip to win at this level. Austin Siegelman is in a position to work an advantageous trip and pay off at a juicy price.
6-All Alone (7/2)-Raced wide in last, the 1st half went in 57.2, then the 4-year-old paced the 2nd half in a quick 54.1, but could only finish 2nd. This will be the 1st start for trainer Jared Bako who wins at a 30% clip after a claim. Colin Kelly steers, he came a close 2nd two starts back and could offer a fair price.

Race 8 (9:05 PM EDT)

2-Sweet Beach Life (5/2)-Went gate to wire in last and now moves in from post 5. Same game plan should be happening tonight and the race most likely will go through the Travis Alexander 4-year-old.
4-Mac’s Delight (8-1)-Had no chance in last, was 10-lengths back at the first call and although rolling the back half in 54.2 couldn’t cash a check. Price shot could land in the pocket and post a trip out win.

Race 9 (9:25 PM EDT)

2-Saddle Up (2-1)-Here is a winner of 3 straight and 6 of 7 for 4 different barns. Would love to play completely against the small price and look for more value. But it doesn’t make sense against this field with this post draw.
5-Southwind Petyr (8-1)-Makes the first start for the DiDomenico barn and George Brennan has options from this starting slot. Could leave, land in a good early seat or could stalk and hope for hot fractions. Can beat this group with the right trip and also looks like a gimmick use at a nice price.

$2 Late Pick 4

2,5/2,6/2,4/2,5
Total Bet=$32
