Driver Jeff Gregory picked up an early christmas gift as he went behind the starting gate eight times in Monday's 13-race card at Yonkers Raceway and came home the winner in five of the races.
Gregory won the evening's first three races--including a sweep of the $23.40 early daily double--with Yankee Rocketter ($4.70) in the $17,000 pacing opener (1:55.2) and Ultra Star ($10.80) in the $6,000, second-race trot (2:00.2). Sign of a Ditch ($11.80) stuck his tongue out on the money in the $6,000, third-race pace (1:58.1) before Gregory took next the four races off.
He picked up right where he left off in the $10,000, eighth-race pace, going the distance with Bunk ($11.20) in 1:55.4. After a pair of fifth-place finishes in races nine and 10, Gregory lasted an open lead with Pembroke Cushy ($15) in the $17,000, 11th-race pace (season's-best 1:54.4). (Yonkers Raceway)
