BY FRANK DRUCKER, Publicity Director, Empire City @ Yonkers Raceway

YONKERS, NY, Wednesday, September 21, 2016—Updating Yonkers Raceway’s October post times, specifically the return of Sunday racing.

First, the ‘usuals’. Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and just about all Saturdays remain at 7:10 PM. Tuesday matinees continue at 1 PM.

Second, the ‘variables’. Saturday, Oct. 15th, the date for the million-dollar Yonkers International Trot, a requested first post of 1:10 PM has been submitted to the New York State Gaming Commission.

Sunday late-morning/early afternoon racing returns just in time for Halloween—the first of six Sundays between then and the (Dec. 18th) end of the racing season—with first post for the Oct. 30st program set for 12:30 PM
