Race 2
(6) LUCKY COLBY is on a tremendous roll and should keep on his winning ways. (5) BINGO QUEEN should fare better from the 5-hole. (1) ON THE PODIUM was second best in his latest.
Race 3
(3) IF I DIDNT CARE closed strongly to grab win honors last time around. Pacing mare is very capable of getting the job done once again. (1) SPRINGHOUSE STAR gets serious post relief to help her cause. (4) QUICKSILVERCANDY could have a say with these.
Race 4
(2) BIG BOY DREAMS put in a tough break in his last start. Sophomore does have a fondness for Yonkers and could make tonight a winning one with Bartlett at the helm. (1) IM ALL HEART & (1A) ALL BETS OFF makes a 1-2 punch for trainer Ron Burke; dangerous. (5) JENERAL PATTON completes the trifecta.
Race 5
(1) NEWPORT VOLO retains the rail slot and could boss these with a good trip. (4) HES LUCKY gets a better draw in here and picks up Sears; watch out. (3) TROTTIN TROY is knocking at the door.
Race 6
(3) IDEAL WILLIE draws much better in this event. Has every right to mow these down for all the marbles. (2) STIRLING CADILLAC was a good second in his last start upstate; player. (1) GOLDEN PARACHUTE is better than his last one.
Race 7
(4) DOUBLE YOUR BET has fine speed and fits well in here; down the road for all the glory. (2) MURDER HE WROTE just got up for win honors last time out; main danger. (3) ARCHETTO HANOVER put in a fine effort last out for the victory at Goshen.
Race 8
(1) BEAT THE BEAT is knocking at the winner's circle door. Ready to break it down tonight. (2) EVERYMILEAMEMORY put in a mild rally in her recent trip to the post. (4) YOU LITTLE RASCAL can grab a share of the purse.
Race 9
(2) STAY UP LATE got the job done in his last try. He is sharp enough to mow these down for his second straight score. (6) NEAT put in two good seconds in a row; big threat. (4) FORTY FIVE RED was sent down the road for the victory last time out.
Race 10
(4) GROUNDED gets class relief and that's a good sign that this pacing mare can get back to her winning ways. (5) VENUS DELIGHT put in a good effort from the 8-hole last time around. (2) GRACE SEELSTER is a speedy five-year-old that will take these as far as she can go.
Race 11
(5) KNOW IT ALL closed nicely for the show spot last time out. Pacing mare might be coming around and could move forward off that effort. (1) STAGE IT RIGHT gets serious post relief and Tetrick gets the call. (2) KAMWOOD LAUGHTHER N can make some noise from the two slot.
Race 12
(3) A AND GS DESIGN moves inside and that could be what she needs to take this; threat at her best. (4) BJS SWEETHEART went down the road to score at Harrington. That puts this gal right square in the mix. (2) SADIES PLACE is 0 for 20 this year but could be a factor with new driver Brennan.
