Brewster Smith|Aug 20, 2018
Yonkers logo

Best Bet: MOTOWN N (10th)

Spot Play: BULLVILLE KYLE (5th)

MEET STATS: 152 - 749 / $1,087.20

BEST BETS: 21 - 69 / $101.10

Race 1

Veteran (4) MAJOR MARCUS seems to be heading in the right direction; could top these if he is at his best. (5) CADILLAC PHIL closed well to grab the place spot recently; could turn the table on rival (6) MAJOR BUDDY A. The latter opened up turning for home on his way to victory last time around; merits respect.

Race 2

(1) MANHATTAN BENNY makes his return to Yonkers where he has the most success; can make tonight a winning one with Brennan at the controls. (2) CONSPIRACY THEORY showed signs of life in his latest; threat. (3) MR MATCH ON BEACH gets post relief and that could help his cause.

Race 3

(5) THANK THE BANK did not have enough gas in the tank last out but now she catches a weak group; gets the call. (2) FUTURE LIFE leaves Pocono, returns to Yonkers and she gets a better draw; main danger. (6) PITTSTOP DANIKA is knocking at the door based on her last two outings; watch out.

Race 4

(3) EDEN PAIGE N seems to be the speed of the speed; has every right to be the boss over these. (2) UPFRONT SUPERSONIC should do much better from door number two and she does have tactical speed; respect. (1) THREEDEE DELIGHT A moves to the fence and she could make some noise with a well-judged run.

Race 5

(7) BULLVILLE KYLE came close to getting the job done last out; catches a weak field tonight so gelding can put his best foot forward. (5) BEAST MODE moves down the ladder, has a better post and Bartlett has the assignment; big threat. (1) NORTHERN VIRGIN retains the fence and he did show speed against better company; not out of this.

Race 6

(4) CANBEC KINGKAZIMIR gets class relief and he should show better speed against these; the pick. (1) DOUBLE IMPACT was late on the scene to grab the show spot in his first Yonkers start; dangerous from the rail. (2) RANSOM DEMAND did not race badly in his latest; can be right in the mix.

Race 7

(6) OUR ELS DREAM N was facing open foes upstate last out and she did show fine speed. Now she is back at the Hilltop where she was a solid second at this level; choice. (5) SAIL TO THE BEACH took charge at the three-quarter pole last out but she tired in deep stretch; factor. (1) OCEANIA came close to getting the job done last out losing glory by a head; do not overlook.

Race 8

(3) SWEET YOU has put in four good efforts so there is an indication this mare is ready to make tonight a winning one if she gets a favorable trip. (1) LEGIO X EQUESTRIS gets class and post relief and that should help her cause against these; player. (4) ROYAL KNOCKOUT could have a say in the outcome with a better trip than in her last try.

Race 9

(3) GHOST PINE finally leaves the 8-hole and if she returns to his 7-22 trip here, the rest will have to settle for minor awards. (1) SEEL THE DEAL N should appreciate the return to Yonkers and the move to the fence; threat at his best. (5) IMA TRAGEDY N seems to be heading in the right direction based on his last two trips to the post; watch out.

Race 10

This should be a perfect spot for (2) MOTOWN N to make tonight a winning one. He has the tactical speed to grab a position in the early stages; gets the call. (6) MACH PRIDE put in a good effort in his last start; factor. (1) PERSISTENT THREAT A was sent down the road in his latest for all the glory; do not overlook from door number one despite the rise in class.
