Sunday Matinees Return To Yonkers
Yonkers Raceway’s next Sunday matinee goes this weekend (July 2nd), with a 12:30 p.m. first post.
It’s a 12-race, all-trot card, with Races 3 (post time 1:25 p.m.) through 6 (2:55 p.m.) of the ‘French’ theme, as in overflow fields at the mile-and-one-quarter distance. The $68,000 Open Handicap goes as the third race, with a robust dozen, including the last matinee idol, Rubber Duck (Joe Bongiorno, post 12).
The remaining July Sundays (16th, 23rd & 30th) all have the popular post time of TBA (updates when available).
The ‘New York, New York Double’ is also back this Sunday, including Belmont’s 3rd race (post time 2:32 PM) and Yonkers’ 7th race (post time 3:15 p.m.). Program pages for this wager shall be sent when they’re done.
Final post for Sunday is scheduled for 4:55 p.m.
