Yonkers Raceway's 10-race program on Monday night was lively from start to finish on the wagering front, and when the dust settled, the handle checked in at a new high for 2021 of $1,254,745. That total also represents the most wagered on a night-time card at Yonkers since April 28, 2012, when $1.33 million was bet on a 12-race program, meaning tonight's average of $125,474 bettered that as well. As far as on-track action on Monday night, Raukapuka Ruler N gave Jordan Stratton one of his four winners on the card and was the third of three victors for trainer Peter Tritton, as the eight-year-o...

Kyuquot, buried along the inside much of the way in the $40,000 Bobby Weiss Series Championship for three-year-old males Saturday afternoon at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono, was angled to the far outside the first part of the stretch by driver Tyler Buter, then got up on the line for a 70-1 upset in 1:52.2, while heavy favourite One Eight Hundred was trapped behind a horse and got shuffled out of contention. One Eight Hundred was sent right to the lead and took the field to the quarter in :26.1; when parked challenger Straight Talk argued hard for the lead, One Eight Hundred elected to sit ...

This Is The Plan was able to overcome starting from the outside post eight with a blitz off the gate and then never let anybody get close to him after that in winning Monday night's $514,000 MGM Borgata Pacing Series final at Yonkers Raceway in 1:50.4. This Is The Plan, driven by Yannick Gingras and one of three in the final sent out by trainer Ron Burke, was dispatched at odds of 11-1. Rockapelo (George Brennan), Hesa Kingslayer N (Jim Marohn, Jr.), Mach N Cheese (Joe Bongiorno), Western Joe (Dexter Dunn), Backstreet Shadow (Tim Tetrick), and This Is The Plan all showed speed at the start of...

Tom Melanson photo Freehold, NJ --- Freehold Raceway will ring in the new year in style, with a 12-race harness racing card on New Year's Day (January 1). The co-features are the Preferred Handicap Trot and the Fillies & Mares Preferred Handicap, with both of last week's winners seeking repeats.   Kinda Lucky Lindy won the Preferred Trot last week, coming from behind to get up in the final few strides. He drew post position eight in his bid to repeat at this level, for trainer Daniel Renaud.   He'll face some stiff competition in here, wth Sumatra and Obrigado serving as perhaps his toughes...

Freehold Raceway hosted a trio of Preferred Handicaps on Saturday - two for pacers, one for trotters. All three saw a horse come from well behind to win. In the Preferred Handicap trot, Kinda Lucky Lindy rallied from last to win. He was well behind early, and then moved three-wide as they moved up the backstretch the final time. At the top of the stretch, he continued his wide push, and got by favoured Gettin Messi and pace-stalker Deo for the win. For Kinda Lucky Lindy, that's his third win of the year, pushing his earnings for the season past the $35,000 mark. He's owned by Brian and Ira Wa...
