Tioga Downs welcomes New York Sire Stakes (NYSS) for 2-year-old trotting colts & geldings on Sunday (August 30).
Eight freshmen trotters are set to race for $104,400. Ahundreddollarbill (Jason Bartlett) should be the horse to beat. Trained by Dan Daley, he is a colt by Chapter Seven-Swinging Royalty. The colt has pulled off back to back impressive NYSS wins at Saratoga and Vernon Downs. He is two for four in his young career.
Special Prosecutor (Scott Zeron) and Dee's Red Delicious (Corey Callahan) should be his chief rivals. The David Dewhurst trained Special Prosecutor (Chapter Seven-Valley Makayla) has two wins in five lifetime starts including a NYSS win at Yankers. Dee's Red Delicious (Credit Winner-Apple Plush) already has a NYSS win at Tioga on July 26th. The gelding trained by Bruce Saunders is two for five in his career.
The 13-race card starts at 1 p.m.
