Yonkers Raceway’s Tuesday evening (March 3) program produced not only a season-high handle total, but the largest Tuesday figure in recent memory.

The dozen races saw $1,091,119 wagered, including the largest on-track count of the season.

While Tuesday represented a 2020 standard, it was by no means an isolated occurrence.

The Raceway’s five-program-per-week schedule continues, with first post every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:05 PM.

March is flush with series competition, including M Life Rewards Ladies (Mondays), Gents (Tuesdays), Blue Chip Matchmaker (Fridays, beginning the 13th) and MGM Borgata Pacing Series (formerly George Morton Levy Memorial, Saturdays, beginning the 14th).
