Race 1

Race 2
(7) YAGOT CLASS put in a nice run in his previous outing. Trotter seems ready to move forward. (2) JESSES STORY moves down in class and that could help her cause. (6) SCOTTISH CROSS Speedy mare can be right in the mix.
Race 3
(5) ADDWATER just got up for the placing last out. Gelding could mow these down at his best. (3) OR just missed the victory in his last try. (1) TALKTOMECOURAGE N should fare quite well from the fence.
Race 4
Three horses will get serious post relief. Will go with (1) THE POKESTER to get the perfect trip and get the job done. (3) MACHIN MONEY moves from the 6-hole and should find the three path to his liking. (4) HACIENDA leaves the eight slot and could have a say against these.
Race 5
(6) SHADOWS DREAM Pacing gelding has tactical speed and with the right trip, he can make tonight a winning one. (1) LATE NITE FLIGHT should have a say from the fence. (3) BRETT MCFAVRELOUS might hang on for a share of the purse.
Race 6
(2) U BELONG TO ME gets the best of the draw. Gelding can top these with a fine-timed drive from Dube. (4) DISARREI makes a move to this class; could be a danger. (6) LITTLE MICHAEL B needs to show more speed to contend in here; maybe.
Race 7
(4) IM BLUE TOO has the 4-hole and that should be the ticket for this gelding to bring his 'A' game to the table. (2) ROCKNROLL JEWEL Speedy gelding will be the one to catch. (1) COLBY JATE should be right square in the mix.
Race 8
(3) ALBERTO CONTADOR N moves down in class and should flash speed against this group; all systems go. (2) A J CORBELLI is knocking at the door based on his last two tries. (1) IDEAL WILLIE Sharp in victory last time out.
Race 9
(2) SHERKIN HANOVER Easy score at this level last time around and she is clearly the one to deny again. (5) HUNGER GAMES could not get to the top pick recently; main threat. (6) CRUISINWITHMYBABY Pacing mare will be closing in the final strides.
Race 10
(4) GAMBLERS TALE Jersey invader makes his initial trip to Yonkers and is very capable of being the boss over these. (3) CITY HALL rallied strongly for win honors last time out. (5) TAURANGA did show some early zip recently.
Race 11
(6) TIME WILL TELL ALL Gelding should find this group to his liking and could be ready to get back to his winning ways. (3) LONG STORY SHORT rallied strongly last out and figures to be a serious threat. (1) ABC CROWN ME QUEEN beat lesser company in her latest.
Race 12
(2) BLADE SEELSTER gets the 2-hole and could take this with a perfect trip. (3) VILLAGE JACKSON raced evenly in his last trip to the post. (8) COBALT MAN Ohio invader has got the job done from the 8-hole three starts ago; not out of this.
