Yonkers Raceway has a 10-race card. The $1.00 Pick 5 with a $10,000 guaranteed pool starts in Race 5. The Spot Plays are in Race 2, Race 6, and Race 10. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 2 (7:05 PM EST)

6-Vicious (5-1)-This is the 3rd start back after a lame scratch on 8-31. Came off the bench on 10-19, drew the 8-hole, and put in a no-move mile. Then came back in sequence, left from post 4, landed in the pocket and finished that way. Now bumps up and should be a solid price. Can leave and land right behind Jason Bartlett on the rail horse who is even money in the program. The 7-year-old has a tactical edge in a race without much early speed inside. Could challenge the chalk if the opening turn goes well.

Race 6 (8:25 PM EST)

8-Theflyingrock (4-1)-If the 8/5 morning line choice #3 Missed The Truth A loses my guess it will be to someone close to the leader turning for the wire that proves best in the late going. The Rock draws outside but could fly off the gate and might get a pocket ride. Steps up, but is sharp, has won 3 straight and should be a fair price with this post draw. The 8-year-old still enjoys taking pictures, has posted 11 wins in 23 starts this year. Plus, it's Yonkers record is impressive as well (74-20-9-13).

8-3-5

Race 10 (9:45 PM EST)

6-No Trespassing (4-1)-Took about 6-weeks off after being a sick scratch on 9-15. Comes off a dull try versus better at PcD on 10-24, ships in, and lands in a soft spot. Cashed checks versus better before the sick scratch and should enjoy the company. Bartlett gets the nod and when he steers for the Daguet barn they have combined for 41% winners. The 4-year-old should be in the mix and has a pilot who can push the button at the right time.
