Yonkers Raceway has a 10-race card. The headliner rolls in Race 8, the MGM Grand Prix Trotting Series Final with a $250,000 purse. The $1.00 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 7, and the sequence will be my focus.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 7 (9:00 PM ET)

4-Easy To Please (6-1)-This is a test but the team Stratton mare won't blush at the competition and comes off an efficient win. The fractions should be lively and gets a post edge on some tough foes. This stalker can be in the hunt with a smooth steer and will be a nice price.
7-Coachellabound N (7/2)-Winner of 3 straight versus this company was game to the wire in last. Could go gate to wire again. Needs to be respected, has the gate speed to get on the point and not look back.

Race 8 (9:20 PM EST) MGM Grand Prix Trotting Series Final

3-Delayed Hanover (8-1)-Price shot got through late along the pylons to DH for a picture last week. Loses Jason Bartlett but picks up Dexter Dun. Should still offer good value, and the last line was better than it looked. Could get a similar trip and be the best down the lane.
4-Ari Ferrari J (5/2)-Left in its Elim, got the top and the extra 1/16th didn't matter last week. Should be on the engine or no worse than in the 2-hole with this post draw. This is a main player, hasn't missed the board in 8 starts and has taken 4 pictures on the Hilltop.

Race 9 (9:40 PM EST)

1-Twist Little Girl N (7/2)-Does its best work racing on the lead or close to it. Should get that kind of trip and be in the mix at the wire.
4-Ultimate Speed (9/2)-This mare is having a very nice year and drops to face similar as its last win on 10-18. Looking for an aggressive steer at a square price. ANap should blast out and play catch me if you can.
5-McMarkel Sparkle (8-1)-Ships back from Philly and comes back in sequence. Will swing for a price in a race without a true standout. Bartlett could also look to be aggressive from the word go.

Race 10 (10:00 PM EST)

4-Kasha V (7/2)-Ships back from M1 and should relish the company. Steve Smith steers for his 2nd straight race. This looks like an opportunity to get the top, and this pilot knows how to rate a winning trip.
5-Vali Hanover (3-1)-This veteran may have met a beatable field. Drops and should be racing near the top of the stack. Looks like a player and hopefully won't be over bet.
