TIME CHANGE FOR FINAL
‘NEW YORK, NEW YORK DOUBLE’
BY FRANK DRUCKER,
Publicity Director, Empire City @ Yonkers Raceway
YONKERS, NY, Friday, December 16, 2016—A bit of change in times
for this Sunday (Dec. 18th) final 2016 ‘New York, New York Double’.
Aqueduct has moved its first post up an hour, to 11:20 AM, to
accommodate more races. Thus, the third race—first half of the gimmick
double—now goes at 12:20 PM, instead of the originally-scheduled 1:18 PM.
Yonkers’ season-ending first post remains at 1 PM sharp, with our
second race—second half of the wager—going at 1:30 PM, as planned.
Past performance pages for these races are available in all 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.
With Aqueduct having moved up the start of its Sunday program,
Yonkers’ mutuel windows shall now open at 10:30 AM.
