Yonkers Raceway has announced an across-the-the-board purse increase, beginning with next week’s condition sheet.

The significant (up to 25 per cent) hikes raise the overnight purse range from $8,000 (for $12,500 claimers) to $40,000 (weekly Opens/Open Handicaps). The current structure is $6,500 to $32,000.

Again, the new scale takes effect next Monday (March 14). For more information, please contact the race office at (914) 457-2627.
