Best Bet: DECLARATION OF WAR (4th) Spot Play: IYQ YQR (5th) MEET STATS: 288 - 1194 / $1,868.50 BEST BETS: 49 - 126 / $190.80   Race 1 (3) SCARLET CHASER put in a fine effort last out and he does have every right to put his best foot forward to greet the cameraman for pictures. (5) TOWNSLIGHT HANOVER is knocking at the door based on his last five tries; big threat. (1) FANCY FOOTWORK gets post relief and that should help his cause. Race 2 (2) AMERICAN ISLAND Pacer was sharp in his last try missing the victory by a nose; using. (4) MR MATCH ON BEACH did not have the best of trips last out but he is very capable of making a quick turnaround. (6) LYONS AGAIN came outside to run them down in his previous outing; post hurts but he should contend with these. Race 3 (6) HUGH HEFNER N Veteran appears to be in sharp form so if he gets the right trip the rest will have to settle for minor awards. (1) ROCK ABSORBER tipped out at the 3/4 marker to grab the lead and never looked back; dangerous again. (4) BIG CITY JEWEL circled the field approaching 3/4's to take charge on his way to victory recently; not out of this. Race 4 (1) DECLARATION OF WAR moves back to the fence where this gelding was a clear-cut winner three trips ago; big factor. (4) BLADE SEELSTER has good early zip and he could make some noise in this event. (8) BETTOR REASON N was sent down the road in his latest for all the glory; bad post tonight but he is very capable. Race 5 (3) IYQ YQR did flash good speed in his Meadowlands finale and now he makes his return to the half-mile oval. Does have a win here in September so he could turn things around and make tonight a winning one. (5) OH JONNY B GOOD N gets a much better post and that could be what he needs to make a impact; threat. (2) DIALAMARA came close of the victory in his Philly finale; don't overlook. Race 6 (3) GOLDEN GESTURE did come up the fence to grab the show spot in his last try. Gelding does have tactical speed and with a well judged drive he could get the job done. (2) IMA TRAGEDY N has put in four good starts in a row so there's an indication he is knocking at the door; threat. (6) JUSTICE MY WAY closed well to save the placing in his latest; must be respected. Race 7 (6) WISHY WASHY GIRL leaves the Open ranks upstate and now this seems to be a better spot for this mare to get herself back into the winner's circle; using. (5) SASSA HANOVER raced evenly against better company last time out and she appears to be a major player. (4) BELLATRICKS has wheeled off two straight victories so this gal should be considered in all the exotic slots. Race 8 (2) VORST moves back inside and she does have good speed to be a serious factor against this group; gets the call. (4) SELL A BIT N was sent down the road in her latest for all the marbles; big player. (1) SHEEZA SHARK N did not fire in her Dover finale and now she moves back to Yonkers and draws the rail; watch out. Race 9 (2) DR DRAKE RAMORAY did show signs of life in his last start. Gelding can get the job done at the Hilltop and if the right trip comes his way it will be game over for the rest. (4) DO OVER HANOVER was facing Open foes in his Saratoga finale and now he moves down in class and have good early zip; player. (3) MIDNIGHT DYLAN N has hit the board 13 of 28 starts this year so this gelding is clearly not out of this. Race 10 (3) HIDDEN LAND Mare put in a good effort last out and she does have every right to get the job done with Bartlett at the controls. (2) BROWN BRINNY was sharp in her last try but could not get past a tough Sell A Bit N last week; main danger. (6) MORE THAN MANY just missed glory by a head last out and this mare is very consistent so she must not be counted out of this. Race 11 (1) BEST OF JENNA moves back to the fence where she put in a good second place finish last out; factor in for win honors. (5) LADY SHADOW did not enough late last time around but this mare should be right in the mix. (8) MACKENZIE A has scored her second straight at this level but now she will have to handle door number eight again; don't count her out. Race 12 (2) SHESJUSTADELIGHT N Mare gets a better post and she does have a win at this level. At her best she can be the boss over this group. (4) LAKEISHA HALL closed well to nail down the fourth spot last time around against tougher so the drop in class could put her within range of a victory. (3) REGIL ELEKTRA has serious post relief and now Brennan has the assignment; don't overlook. [DRF HARNESS NEWSLETTER: Sign Up for the FREE DRF Harness Newsletter.
