YONKERS NY, Thursday, September 20, 2012--When Yonkers Raceway hosts Saturday's $1.8 million New York Night of Champions, it's not just the participants who get the goodies.
The evening, which features eight, $225,000 sire stakes finals--for 2- and
3-year-old of both sexes and gaits--is spiced up by a pair of giveaways.
Racing fans can take home the ever-popular T-shirt (gold, for the
fashion-conscious), along with a racing-themed plate, both available while
supplies last.
The richest night of racing in the state returns to Westchester, with the NYSS
finals going as races 2 through 9 as part of Yonkers Raceway's 13-race card.
