For the sixth of July, Jason Bartlett cracked open a six-pack -- of victories.

Yonkers Raceway's leading driver padded that margin last night, rolling a happy half-dozen during the 13-race extravaganza. In fact, all of his wins came in the first eight races.

Bartlett swept the first three races, winning the $18,000, pacing opener with the invader Born With Class ($5.50) in 1:55.1, the $7,500, second-race trot with Maritime interloper Rustico Trisox ($3.20, $13.20 early double) in a life's-best 2:00.1, and the $12,000, third-race pace with another first-time Westchesterite, Roca Rockette ($4.30) in a career-best 1:57.3.

After winding up a pocket second in the fourth race and up the track (seventh) in the fifth, he struck again at a very-un-Bartlett-like 34-1.

Mystical Coin ($70.50) overcame the eight hole to get up on the money in the $12,000, sixth-race trot (2:00.3), that one's first on-the-board finish in four seasonal starts.

Talk Forever ($8.60) went up and over in the $18,000, seventh-race pace (season's-best 1:54.3) before Keystone Nite Hawk (life-beast 1:54.4) was a wire-to-wire winner in the $18,000, eighth-race pace ($13.40).

Bartlett's final five drives of the evening saw him end up eighth, sixth, second, fifth and second. He began the week sixth in North America with 326 '09 wins.
