Yonkers Raceway’s 238-date live schedule for the 2015 racing season begins Friday night, along with the return of evening simulcasting.

A 12-race card has been drawn. It features a $35,000 Filly and Mare Open Handicap Pace (Race 6). The race will feature 10-year-old millionaire Voelz Hanover, who will be making her local debut. She has been assigned outside her five rivals.

Please note the following post times for the upcoming season:

• Mondays/Thursdays/Fridays/Saturdays – first post 7:10 p.m.
• Tuesdays – first post 1 p.m.
• Sundays – first post 11:25 a.m. (only one – on the 11th – in January)

Save for a six-card first full week, Yonkers generally offers a five-program-per-week schedule. Included in that is a proposed 31 days (174 races) simulcast to a French-hubbed audience. The ‘French races’ begin this Sunday (January 11) and end with the final (December 13) program of the season.

A stakes schedule shall be announced shortly.

The track’s complete 2015 schedule is pending approval of the New York State Gaming Commission.
