YONKERS, NY, Monday, December 12, 2016—This Sunday (Dec. 18th)
brings the end of Yonkers Raceway’s live season, and—not coincidentally—the
final 2016 rendition of the ‘New York, New York Double’.
With Yonkers’ first post at 1 PM sharp, the Sunday’s sequence
begins with Aqueduct’s third race (post time 1:18 PM), then our second
race (post time 1:30 PM).
The ‘New York, New York Double’ is a cooperative effort between the
New York Racing Association (NYRA), Yonkers Raceway and their respective
horsemen.
Past performance pages for these races shall again be made
available in all corresponding on-track and simulcast programs. The ‘New York,
New York Double,’ also available through Empire City Bets, is a one dollar
minimum wager and an 18.5 percent takeout rate.
