by James Witherite, Tioga Downs racing media

Tioga Downs is implementing a 10% across-the-board purse increase, effective immediately.

Open events, previously carded for $14,000, now carry a purse of $15,000.  Similar increases have been made throughout the condition sheet, with maiden races seeing an increase from $4200 to $4600, and first-level conditioned events up from $3400 to $3800.
