Yonkers Raceway has a 10-race card. The Spot Plays roll in Race 5, Race 6, and Roll 8. They can be played to win or could be used in gimmicks. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 5 (8:05 PM EDT)

5-Nial Maree N (4-1)-Should offer a square price in a race without a true standout. Can be in the mix at the wire starting from the 1-hole. Gets a positive driver change with Colin Kelly at the controls and will look for an aggressive try. Does have enough gate speed to be racing on the point or in the pocket when the wings fold. Does well at Yonkers (21-6-6-4).

1-5-2

Race 6 (8:25 PM EDT)

6-Nymeria (8-1)-Came off the bench to face Invites and put in an even effort. Then dropped to a level lower than this and faded late in the mile to disappoint at 3/5. Steps up after burning money and now could offer a handsome price. Will look for better in the 3rd start back in action. The price is right to take a swing, will fade the rail horse who is taking on better and is 7/5.

6-4-1

Race 8 (9:05 PM EST)

3-Oakley Shard N (5-1)-Going to fade #4 the 2-1 choice looking for 3 straight who is stepping up. This is the 2nd start in town for the New Zealand mare following a no-move effort. Expecting a better mutuel than the morning line price. Kakaley may look to leave and could land in the pocket behind the program chalk and post a trip out win.

3-4-5
