2026 MEET STATS: 88 - 314 / $616.22 (-$11.78) BEST BETS: 20 - 33 / $64.90 (-$1.10) SPOT PLAYS: 8 - 33 / $108.62 (+$42.62) BEST BET - VERY BUSY (4th) SPOT PLAY - CAVIART SARGENT (8th) Race 1 - 3-6YO 20000CLM Pace (3) LETSMAKELOTSAMONEY hasn't won yet in 2026 but has been racing well against open claimers both here and at Harrah's Philadelphia. He uses Lasix for the second time and faces age-restricted foes today. (1) SIMPLY FAST has won the last two times he's competed at this level, including last Saturday. He moves in from the seven-hole to post one today. (2) TONTO RETURNS shows a pair of recent triumphs against open $20,000 claiming rivals at Yonkers and was third in the race SIMPLY FAST exits from a week ago. [DRF HARNESS: Get Harness Eye PPs for this card] Race 2 - F&M Winners of 1 but not more than 4 PM Races or 60000LT / NW2 or 30000LT Draw Inside Pace (2) COWGIRL HANOVER exits tough races over at Pocono and gets Jason Bartlett in the bike today against a more reasonable-looking field. (3) LOCHINVAR MATILDA invades from Monticello off a pair of daylight victories in their NW2 class. (1) HOBBY GONE CRAZY broke in one appearance at Yonkers on April 8 but has been sharp other than that and returns off a win and a second at Harrah's Philadelphia in her last two outings. Race 3 - F&M 20000CLM Pace (4) SP DANCINWITHSTARZ moves in from post seven to the four-hole this time and while she lacks a victory so far this year, she has finished second on five occasions, including four straight times from 3-31 through 4-22. (1) JIVE DANCING A looms as the one to beat again as she's riding a three-race win streak and gets post relief today. (2) BIG CITY DAISY made an uncharacterstic break which took her out of contention a week ago. She was re-claimed out of that race by connections who had a couple of recent triumphs with her, though, and I'll include. Race 4 - NW2/30000LT Trot (7) VERY BUSY starts from the outside but was a handy winner at Pocono in his debut for the leading trainer at Yonkers last Tuesday and gets Bartlett to drive again. (5) FLEX UP gets post relief this time and has a win and a second against NW2 foes since he came over from Pocono. (2) LIFE IS GREAT slides in on the gate from the six-hole to post two and has hit the board in three of her four outings thus far in 2026. Race 5 - Winners of 5 but not more than 8 PM Races or 90000LT Trot (2) BJM'S LIL MAN makes his fourth start out of a high-percentage stable today and has closed well in two outings since the qualifier on 4-17. Add in some post relief, and I'll give him top call. (3) KAYS IN CHARGE won handily at this level last Saturday and competes for the top driver/trainer combo. (1) PORTOBAROSSO AS NL slides in from the seven-hole to the pole position this afternoon and hasn't been outside the trifecta in his four trips behind the gate so far in 2026. Race 6 - Winners of 2 but not more than 4 PM Races or 60000LT Trot (4) BIZZY BRENDA came in second in a higher class last week in her first start of 2026 last Saturday and I'll look for her to build on that tonight. (1) INEXPRESSABLE had a good 2-year-old campaign that included a win in the Kentucky Commonwealth Series final at The Red Mile. He's probably the one to beat but has never raced on a half-mile track and has stakes engagments in his future, so I'll take a swing against. (2) WISH LIST has shown the ability to hit the board at this level when she's drawn inside like she has this afternoon. Race 7 - 20000CLM Pace (5) DANCE ON THE BEACH was in strong form before a series of outside posts derailed him. He gets to move in some on the gate tonight, and I'll hope that he's ready to be put in play. (3) FOXHUNT prevailed the last time he competed against $20,000 claimers on 4-8 and drops today after two tries against tougher $25,000 claiming company. (2) PINK FLOYD HANOVER has hit the board in four of his last five tries and debuts for new connections off a claim. He also slides in from the five-hole to post two here. [DRF HARNESS: Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter] Race 8 - NW6162L5 / 12500CLM Pace (4) CAVIART SARGENT's last win came in this class back on March 5, and I'm just going to write off his last effort where he never got involved as he had post eight. (3) ONYX BOVINO is a second-time starter for this stable and had a bit of pace in the stretch last Saturday after he found some room on the cones. (2) AUSSIE HANOVER gets post relief this time and hit the board at the bottom level a couple of times back in late March. Race 9 - 15000CLM Pace (7) CYRUS N will have to overcome a wide post but finished a solid second in his return to action last Friday, and I'm going to hope he offers a better price here. (3) OVER THE HORIZON has won three of his last four starts in this class at Yonkers, including against my top pick when they met on 5-1. (2) MOVIN' ON UP shows a couple of recent triumphs against $15,000 claiming company at Yonkers and returns off a fourth from a bad post at Plainridge most recently.
