Yonkers Raceway has a 10-race card. The 0.50 Pick 5 with a $10,000 guaranteed pool rolls in Race 5. The $1.00 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 7, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track. Race 7 (9:00 PM EST) 2-Great Somewhere (5-1)-Paul Stafford trainee gets some needed class relief and lands at the same level of its last win coming back on 2-28. Joe B should get a close-up seat when the wings fold and be in the mix at the wire. 3-Bugaboo Lou (8/5)-Likes to go gate to wire and could do so as was the case in its last start on 4-23. This will be 2nd time for Lasix, steps-up but should have the ability to down this bunch. 5-Ocean Ridge N (5/2)-The 10-year-old workhorse had 17 wins in 44 races last year but at Yonkers is just 2-11 lifetime. Tonight, lands in a spot to extend that total. Should be heard from unless there is a battle early on with #3 for the lead. Race 8 (9:20 PM EST) 3-Hemsworth N (7/2)-Got a very good steer by Scott Zeron in last as he pushed the button at the right time and took control. It was an impressive effort, now Jordan Stratton takes over for Zeron and he could follow a similar plan. 4-Captivate Hanover (4-1)-In the last 43 starts this veteran has won 15 times. Moved up to this level and had no shot off the trip he got. Will give him another chance and the price should be right to take a swing. Race 9 (9:40 PM EST) 4-YS Do It Right 5-1-The Stratton brothers could have this one ready to deliver in the first start after a claim. Won 2 back at this level and has been competitive with a decent post. Will look to fade the 9/5 choice #2, Motive Hanover as his form seems to have fallen off and will probably still be bet hard. 5-My Ultimate Byron 7/2-Was claimed by the Dilloian barn for $30k off a win. Was pushed up in class and found the water too deep versus the $40k claimers. This barn is ice cold, but Byron is in a good spot to cash the top check and Matt Kakaley takes a seat. Race 10 (10:00 PM EST) 4-Real Willey (5/2)-Willey was caught at the wire after drawing off by 6 lengths. He might have been a handful to rate last week. But if he gets the top this time my take is Joe B won't let him burn every drop of gas. 5-San Domino A (6-1)-Raced well in the last 2 at this level and then was claimed by the Herrera barn. Found the $50k claimers tough and now drops down to face the $40's. Will look for a big try as Mark MacDonald gets the call tonight. $1.00 Late Pick 4 2,3,5/3,4/4,5/4,5 Total Bet=$24 Check me out on Twitter!

Specifically designed for the rolling exotic player, Jeff Siegel’s “What You Need to Know” isolates those horses that should be included in daily doubles, pick-3s, pick-4s, pick-5s, and the pick-6. * The selections are posted at 6:00 a.m. and updated later in the morning to reflect late scratches and changes (approximately 10:30 a.m.). For additional commentary, follow us on twitter @jsiegelracing. * * Grade Descriptions: Grade A=Highest degree of confidence; Grade B=Solid Play. Grade C=Least preferred or pass; Grade X=probable winner but likely at odds too short to play. View Jeff Siegel’s Prime Plays Video ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 1: Post: 1:00 PT Grade: B+ Main Ticket: 1-Marsh Creek Backups/savers: 5-Highly Desirable; 7-Abitmischievous. Forecast: Marsh Creek has done some very good work leading up to his racing debut, though it can’t be said he’s bred for grass. Nonetheless, here he is, in a turf sprint from the rail, in a field that really didn’t come up strong. If this grandson of the top class mare Indian Blessing can run, he can run, regardless of the surface, and with the barn’s “go-to” jockey J. Hernandez taking the call this sophomore son of Arrogate looks like a very live item. We suspect that if he breaks cleanly, he’ll be hard to beat. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 2: Post: 1:30 PT Grade: C+ Main Ticket: 4-Slew’s Joy; 5-Established. Backups/savers: none. Forecast: Slew’s Joy is a first-off-the-claim play for M. Glatt (24% with this angle) and also is making his first start as a gelding. Taken for $16,000 and returning for $10,000, the son of Slew’s Tiznow doesn’t have a healthy pattern, but on the barn switch alone probably deserves top billing in a weak affair. Established is comfortably drawn outside, drops to his lowest level ever, and is a three time winner over the local dirt track. Low percentage connections notwithstanding, the veteran gelding is the one to fear most. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 3: Post: 2:00 ET Grade: B- Main Ticket: 2-All That Glory; 7-Tees Touch (GB); 5-Cathal (Ire). Backups/savers: none. Forecast: All That Glory, a solid runner-up over this course and distance in a similar maiden grass dash for older horses, probably won’t have to improve much at all to graduate today. The T. Yakteen-trained colt just earned a career top speed figure that points him out as strictly the one to beat. A steady, strong work tab since raced is another plus. Tees Touch (GB) and Cathal (Ire) are Irish invaders making their U.S. debuts after displaying some promise during their juvenile campaigns. The former, a first time gelding trained by P. D’Amato, was 40-1 in his only start but ran quite well to be second before being privately purchased and imported. The latter, a good runner-up in a 14 runner affair while almost four lengths clear of the rest in a representative race at Dundalk in November, should be fit enough for J. Sadler to at least give a good account of himself. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 4: Post: 2:30 PT Grade: C+ Main Ticket: 2-Rhino Backups/savers: 6-Mystic Spirit. Forecast: Rhino is far from trustworthy but he’s back on dirt today and may appreciate the surface switch. Beaten as the favorite in both of his recent races following a layoff without no visible excuses, the son of Texas Ryano projects as the logical pacesetter and may be able to stay the course in a field lacking in late speed. Though a likely winner, he offers no value at 8/5 on the morning line. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 5: Post: 3:04 PT Grade: B Main Ticket: 4-Halfway Line (GB); 7-Mystification. Backups/savers: none. Forecast: Here’s a challenging turf miler for first level allowance older horses. Use as many as your budget allows. Halfway Line (GB) hasn’t been particularly impressive in his a.m. breezes since arriving from France, but he’s form overseas is pretty good, so if he brings his best stuff in his U. S. debut he should be very competitive. He gets Lasix and A. Fresu and figures to be doing his best work late. Mystification is lightly raced with room to improve and finished a solid third under these conditions last month after making the pace under pressure throughout. His only win as accomplished as the controlling speed, so we suspect that strategy will be employed again today. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 6: Post: 3:35 ET Grade: B+ Main Ticket: 5-Show Card; 1-Scary Fast Ride. Backups/savers: Forecast: Show Card looks like a short price in this first level allowance sprint. She’s drawn cozily outside, earned a career top speed figure in her recent maiden score, and likely will continue to improve as she gains added experience for B. Baffert. Scary Fast Ride returns to the main track after failing to negotiate the Hillside Course in her most recent outing. With two wins and a second in three career outings over the local main dirt track, the S. McCarthy-trained mare seems likely to return to her best form today. She’s not a particularly quick type leaving the gate, though, so she’ll have to avoid trouble from her rail draw. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 7: Post: 4:10 PT Grade: B+ Main Ticket: 3-Alluring Backups/savers: none. Forecast: Alluring had a tough beat in a similar Hillside sprint for sophomore fillies last month but we’re expecting the talented sprinter to break through today in this year’s edition of the Senorita S.-G3. She employs an effective second flight, stalking style, retains regular pilot U. Rispoli, and shows speed figures that are gradually rising. The R. Mandella-trained daughter of Ghostzapper is ready for a stakes win, and at 3-1 on the morning line offers a reasonable gamble and an attractive rolling exotic single. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 8: Post: 4:40 ET Grade: C+ Main ticket: Bag’s Gold; 5-Crowining Gold Backups/savers: none. Forecast: Bag’s Gold has lacked punch when it’s been needed the most in recent races, so we’re not sure he can be counted on but on pure form the Vronsky gelding should be able to handle this restricted (nw-3) $20,000 claiming assignment. His recent numbers have been solid, so we’ll put him on top but with trepidation. Crowning Gold is a strong fit at this level and is re-equipped with blinkers, so we’ll toss him in as well. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 9: Post: 5:10 PT Grade: B Main ticket: 7-Big Summer; 10-Just Nails. Backups/savers: 5-Excelia (Ire). Forecast: Big Summer usually prefers to finish second or third (10 times) rather than win (four times), but this is a field the veteran mare can beat with one of her better efforts if she’s ready in her comeback. The barn has been ice cold all year and its record with layoff runners is weak, so there are question marks. Still, the daughter of Mr. Big is a three time winner over the local turf course and her work tab should have her plenty fit. Just Nails shows the route-to-sprint angle that always catches the eye and a repeat of her race before last – she was beaten a nose at this distance over the flat course while earning a career top number – makes here strictly the one to beat. ______________________________________________________________________________ RACE 10: Post: 5:40 PT Grade: B Main ticket: 5-Lincoln Hawk (Ire) ; 9-City Exile (GB). Backups/savers: 6-Reckless Spirit.; 1-Barely Functional. Forecast: Lincoln Hawk (Ire) was badly victimized by the race shape (slow early, fast late) and could make no impression when unplaced in a similar spot over 10 furlongs last time out. This shortening to a mile should help produced more pace, so this Irish-bred gelding has a chance to improve big time at a good price (he’s 8-1 on the morning line). City Exile (GB), freshened since early February, likes to lag and then blast home and like our top pick can be dangerous if he can get some help up front.

Northfield Park has a 15-race card and the $1.00 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 11. The sequence has a $10,000 guaranteed pool with a low 14% takeout, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track. Race 11 (9:40 PM EST) 1-One Last Laugh (5-1)-Outraced his odds last time versus this kind from the rail. Hunter Meyers needs to put this 7-year-old in a position to win and shouldn't be out of place tonight. 4-Louis The Horse N (5-1)-Aaron Merriman worked a smooth trip last week and won by open lengths. Steps-up but does good work at Nfld (6-3-2-0) and should offer a square price. 5-Mull Of Kintyre (7/2)-Has been in the hunt at this level and Justin Irvine can get the lead off the gate. Probably has the best gate speed and that tactical advantage could be the winning difference. Race 12 (10:02 PM EST) 1-Lake Charles (3-1)-Tries hard and could beat this scattered crew but will need some hot fractions. Pretty much everyone moves up and it is not an easy race to read. This veteran can roll late and Irvine could have in play. 2-Cowboy Cool (4-1)-The Burke-Wrenn combo is tough to ignore as they click for 33% winners. Hard to leave off the ticket and should be in the hunt but doesn't make a habit of winning here (12-1-2-3). 7-Nvrfearlloydishere (5-1)-Bumps up after taking advantage of a pocket ride to take a picture. Beat Open company at Nfld in March and could be heard from with the right trip. Looking for a price and may be overlooked. Race 13 (10:24 PM EST) 2-Ego Trippin (2-1)-Left to get a close up seat last time and took the lead early on. But was caught by the the morning line chalk #1 who came off cover to win its 2nd straight. Will look for a different outcome this time as Aaron Merriman grabs the lines. 5-Rock The Hill (5/2)-Will look to fade #1 the 9/5 chalk and get more value. Irvine should have the pedal down and has the gate speed to get the top or the pocket. The Roegner-Irvine combo has clicked for 32% winners over the last 30 days. Race 14 (10:46 PM EST) 1-Sawyer's Desire (9/5)-Makes the 2nd start off the bench and could be ready to roll with the inside draw. The short price isn't easy to take. But this veteran is like most in the field, a win at this level hasn't happened for a while. But back class could show tonight. 5-White Hair Rocks (7/2)-Beat this kind from the rail 2 back. Has enough gate speed to get a close-up seat and could be a clean trip away from another picture. $1.00 Late Pick 4 1,4,5/1,2,7/2,5/1,5 Total Bet=$36 Check me out on Twitter!
