Yonkers Raceway is about to become busier than usual, as it is set to offer 28 programs of live harness racing over a period of five weeks.
Beginning Friday night (Feb. 26), Yonkers will hosts its usual schedule of Monday, Friday, and Saturday evenings (first post 7:10 p.m.) and Tuesday (1 p.m.) matinees.
Throw in the return of Thursday nights (7:10 p.m.) in March and a trio of ‘French’ Sunday matinees (Feb. 28, March 13 and 20), and the rather hectic workload sort of explains itself.
Please note that this Sunday‘s first-race post time has been reset to 12:30 p.m., while the March Sundays are, as of this writing, set to begin at 1:10 p.m. (this is subject to change).
Also be advised that Tuesday (March 1) is the closing date for nominations to the Blue Chip Matchmaker and George Morton Levy Memorial Pacing Series. Nomination forms are available at yonkersraceway.com and in the nightly racing program as well.
For more information, please contact the race office at 914-457-2627.
