A new week of racing means two fresh shots at Xpressbet and 1/ST BET’s month-long ongoing “Cornucopia of Cash” promotion, which is as easy as it gets. First, make sure you register for the new promo that started last week on the landing page. Then, simply wager $100+ on the select card for that day to earn a $10 bonus. This week we head to West Virginia on Tuesday for an evening at Mountaineer before heading north to Horseshoe Indianapolis for their Thursday card. With that in mind, here are a few horses I like tomorrow night to take advantage of the “Cornucopia of Cash”.Race 1:The card kicks off with this open $5k claimer for fillies and mares at one-mile over the grass where the pace should be honest at the very least given the presence of #4 Alien Princess, as well as #6 New Age Bad Girl. This should set things up for a runner that can settle early and finish with solid energy late. I am hopeful that is #7 Total Bliss. The 7YO mare ships south to West Virginia after a pair of starts at the Meadowlands earlier this fall for trainer Blake Kelly. She has just 1 win in 8 starts dating back to the beginning of 2025, but Kelly sports a positive ROI over his last 25 starts with runners making their third start off the layoff. Jockey Bailey Weatherly takes the call on this daughter of Optimizer that is in search of her second career victory over the sod.Play: #7 Total Bliss (8-1 ML)Picks: 7-3-4Race 3:My next play comes in this first-level allowance for the ladies at 5.5-furlongs over the main track where trainer Jay Bernardini holds a strong hand with 2-1-ML favorite #4 Cinderbella and 5-1-third choice #2 Hot Cocoa. Hot Cocoa holds the experience edge over her stablemate having started 17 times already, while the favorite comes in with just two races under her belt. The lighter-raced Cinderbella clearly has more upside, but neither are overly trustworthy at their ML offerings.I will hope to run them both down late with #1 Emily’s Joy. The daughter of Cupid makes her first for trainer Jami Poole after competing in a five-furlong turf race on October 5. The Hubel Farms filly has tried to race exclusively over the lawn of late, but has performed well in races that were taken off the grass, like on August 9 when she won going away against lesser in a race conducted over a fast main track. Emily’s Joy draws favorably along the inside, which should allow jockey Elijah Greenridge to tuck in off the pace and make a strong run late. Hopefully, it is good enough to get the money.Play: #1 Emily’s Joy (6-1 ML)Picks: 1-9-4Race 8:#9 Hard Astray is listed as the 2-1-ML favorite in this conditional $4k claimer at one-mile over the main track. The 14-time winner has had a solid career, but appears on paper to have lost his desire to win of late. He enters his first race of November having lost six consecutive starts this year and could take some pressure early on with regular rider Yuri Yaranga back in the saddle. That said, he has encountered stronger fields of late evidenced by the fact he has been 9-2-or higher in all of his races in 2026. That is unlikely to be the case in the finale when the Jeff Fischer trainee meets a modest bunch of veteran milers. Hard Astray should have no issue getting to the front and having enough left late to earn career win #15.Play: #9 Hard Astray (2-1 ML)Picks: 9-6-8

Yonkers Raceway has a 9-race card. The $1.00 Pick 5 with a $10,000 guaranteed pool starts in Race 5. The Spot Plays are in Race 4, Race 7, and Race 9. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.Race 4 (7:45 PM EST)5-Karloo Bradley N (5/2)-The 10-year-old is popular at the claiming box and makes its 1st start for the Laterza barn. Comes off an efficient trip win and Brent Holland sticks. The 8/5 program chalk starts next door in post 4 and will likely get the top but this veteran could be following in the pocket. Holland knows how to push the button at the right time and will expect a good response.Race 7 (8:45 PM EST)6-Resilient (5-1)-Joe Bongiorno has the tactical speed to use and should be a threat at a square price. Could get the top and might be able to steal a quarter, if so, could be difficult to tackle. Does fit well with this crew, and the last time seen at Yonkers cashed checks versus better. Ships back after 2 races at M1 and fell short in both. Burned money at 1/2 in last and should be a much better value this time.Race 9 (9:25 PM EST)5-Twin B Fresh Bet (5-1)-Went off at 3/5 on 10-13 versus similar, had issues and was pulled up. Requalified on 10-30 going gate to wire with tonight’s pilot Brent Holland aboard. If 100%, has the gate speed to be on top or in the pocket around the opening turn. Will assume issues have been solved and when Holland steers for the Johnson barn, he has posted 5 wins in 13 races.Check me out on X!

Spencer: best bets today in the Xpressbet member’s section

Track officials estimate a $1.25 million pool in today's Pick 6 with a mandatory payout provision joining a carryover of $134,790. Check out the full-card picks with the big sequence beginning in Race 5.Race 1: The gap between 7 IMPERIA BLUE and 5 THUNDER PRINCESS was just a half length when they met 9/27, but considering ‘Princess is now off-the-claim for Pulgarin, a huge 35% angle, she has every right to turn the tables in the opener. ‘Blue showed she continues to be in good form with a 10/18 2nd and gets Lopez, so you know she’ll be bet hard and is the one to beat. Rising off a dominant N2L makes 2 LOOKS TO KILL a threat, though the top-2 won’t be too scared by that win against lesser. SELECTIONS: 5-7-2-4Race 2: Taking the short price on 3 STEM CELL and moving on, as his close 5th against better in his Tapeta debut beats these easy, and he should only improve off it too. If 4 ATOMIC DON takes to the surface he’s in with a chance off that solid dirt 2nd last time, though the chalk has the homecourt edge. Tread lightly with 7 SMELL OF MONEY, a voided 9/4 claim who may not get back to the 8/17 Tapeta 2nd. SELECTIONS: 3-4-7-2Race 3: The fact 1 MAJESTIC DELIGHT drops and doesn’t come out of the same iffy race four of these do says he’s in a good spot, and getting 5-8 lbs. from these won’t hurt either. The best of the 10/17 runners may be 5 ROCKAZO, as he picks up Lopez, even though 2 SKY MASTERSON beat him by a head, but is now 1-for-31 lifetime. SELECTIONS: 1-5-2-6Race 4: Invader 5 TIZ GENERAL warrants a long look while trying Tapeta, as he was facing much tougher in Ky., has speed, and meets a weak group of locals. Who are led by 8 CILLIAN, an MSW dropper who also cuts back from a turf route, and seemed to handle the surface in the AM in August. Don’t ignore 1 BRO off a no-show in his debut in a turf route, as he sizzled on Tapeta in a 10/18 drill, and gets significant weight from all the main contenders too. SELECTIONS: 5-8-1-3Start of $134K Carryover/Mandatory Payout Pick 6Race 5: Stabbing with 6 INSOLENTA off a slew of Tapeta/turf runs, as she’s only run on the main track twice in her career, and meets a group that doesn’t really inspire. Taking another short price on 2 SWEET AGENDA seems silly, even though she’s best on paper, as she’s lost at odds-on in her last two. Don’t ignore 5 SAMARITAN’S JOY at a price, especially since she gets off the rail after breaking last. SELECTIONS: 6-2-5-1Race 6: It’s Longshot time with 6 ORTUS off a sharp turf win for Lewis, who has been very live at the meet, and this 7yo owns a local Tapeta win earlier in his career too. The gap was 2 lengths when 8 STEELIN BASES beat 7 PEACETHRUSTRENGTH when they met 10/17, and while the latter may be able to bridge the gap second-off the layoff, the former was a convincing winner, and will again sit a better stalking trip today. SELECTIONS: 6-8-7-3Race 7: Good luck beating 7 MODO LEYENDA on the MSW drop in her dirt debut, as she held her own on Tapeta/turf, is bred for this, and drew perfectly too. The main danger seems Midatlantic invader 2 MO PROBABLE off that nose 2nd at Del, though this is a tougher group, and there’s speed to her outside too. The price player is 5 KIM WIN WIN, especially since she worked big 10/30 on the main track, for a Lopez barn that is 2-for-6 OTC. SELECTIONS: 7-2-5-1Race 8: Maybe two turns is what 1 POSEIDON’S LAW has wanted all along, as his sprint form has stagnated, but he’s bred for this, drew well, and should be closer early too. A close 3rd at the level makes 3 PARIS SURPRISE the one to beat after he just finished behind two toughies, though his margin for error here is a slim one. Let’s see if 5 LONGBRANCH LOU can handle a class rise, as he’s been doing his good Tapeta work against lesser of late. SELECTIONS: 1-3-5-6Race 9: Newcomers 6 KID TWIST and 5 EDITOR have been facing better in Ky., so they have a class edge here, with the former getting the call with Gallegos taking over for Amaty, which has proven to be a potent combination. Editor makes perfect sense in his local debut for David, especially since he’s really improved his game in two starts OTC. The best of the locals is 1 SWAGGISH off that solid 3rd against better, although it came in the slop, and his fast track numbers aren’t quite as big. SELECTIONS: 6-4-1-9Race 10: It’s Best Bet time in the finale with 3 KOKOMO KITTY, who tries Tapeta off a close 2nd on turf, meets a modest group, and still has plenty of upside too. ‘Mate 8 SOVEREIGN GOLD has an edge with a good 2nd on Tapeta, but it came in June and she hasn’t been seen since, and Reyes lands on the pick now too. Newcomer 9 NECEA moves to Tomlinson off a 2/7 layoff and worked a bullet for this, but is a complete unknown off just one iffy turf start. SELECTIONS: 3-8-9-5Best Bet: R10: #3 Kokomo Kitty (2-1)* Improved trying turf and two turns* Recency edge over stablemate (#8)* Stable go-to rider Reyes lands hereLongshot: R6: #6 Ortus (6-1)* Enters off very strong turf win* Owns a local Tapeta win earlier* Lewis firing with limited starters

Breeders Crown Final winner #4 Dandy Ideal (8/5) is the morning line chalk in the field for the 11th running of the Potomac Pace Invitational at Rosecroft Raceway. The headliner is carded as Race 11 as a competitive field of 8 battle for a share of a $125,000 purse. This group includes the 2nd program chalk Womens Layer (3-1) who finished 3rd in BC Final and has drawn Post 1. Prince Hal Hanover and Coaches Corner who came up flat in the BC Final are also in the field. Bythemissal is 10-1 in the morning line, has dawn post 3, and Dexter Dunn will be at the controls. The Ron Burke trainee will be my pick and should offer a solid price.Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.Race 11 (9:20 PM EST)3-Bythemissal (10-1)-Starts inside of #4 Dandy Ideal, could get the jump in the early going on #6 Prince Hal Hanover (4-1) and #5 Coaches Corner (6-1). Will look for Dunn to try to drop in behind #1 Women Layer (3-1), and the Virgil Morgan entry with Yannick Gingras will be leaving hard. If Missal is dialed on high, Dunn could work an efficient trip. The fractions should be hot, and he can look to roll by down the lane. This won't be easy, but the 2 with the best post draws are #5 and #6. My guess is they won't be able to land on the point and take the lead from Gingras. If so, it will be up to Dunn to stay close enough to the leaders to be a late threat. Could spice up the gimmicks and can be used underneath at the morning line price. Did put in a 1.48 mark as a 4-year-old at RcR, and this year went in 147.0 at M1. The speed is there, it just isn't there all the time but could offer good value with the driver change and inside post draw.(3-1-4-6)Check me out on X!
