FORT ERIE, Ontario - Yatsko will be going for his third stakes score in under a month here on Tuesday at Fort Erie in the $60,000 Peninsula Stakes.
A 6-year-old gelding with four wins in 33 lifetime starts, Yatsko heads a field of nine. Scheduled for seven furlongs on the turf, the event is for Canadian-breds who have started at least twice at the current meeting.
Yatsko won the Benburb Stakes by a half-length on July 21, and the Cool Reception by a neck on Aug. 5. Go Figure finished second in both races.
