Tioga Downs welcomes two divisions of the New York Sire Stakes (NYSS) for three-year-old trotters for both colts & geldings as well as the fillies on Friday, June 9.

Cecil Hanover (Ake Svanstedt) should be the one to beat in the $57,000 first division for colts & geldings (non-betting race). The gelding by Chapter Seven is one-for-one this season after winning a NYSS race at Vernon Downs.   

The Gruffalo (Scott Zeron) is the 9-5 morning line favourite in the $57,000 second division for colts & geldings. The colt by Chapter Seven fell just short against Cecil Hanover in his first start of the season in a leg of NYSS at Vernon Downs. He has won more than $240,000 in his career. 

The Annie Stoebe-trained Instagram Model (Scott Zeron) is the 3-1 morning line in the $59,200 first division for fillies. The filly by Chapter Seven finished second during a leg of the NYSS at Vernon Downs. She had five wins as a two-year-old and now has won almost $280,000 in purses. 

In the $60,300 second division for fillies, Sadie Hanover (Scott Zeron) is the 2-1 morning line choice. Linda Toscano trains the filly by Chapter Seven who is three-for-three this season including an impressive NYSS win at Vernon Downs. 

The NYSS non-betting race will start at 6 p.m. The 14-race betting card starts at 6:15 p.m.
