Yonkers, NY — Four weeks to the night of Yonkers Raceway’s first million-dollar night of 2019, the Raceway sashayed over seven figures once again. Monday night’s (March 4) dozen-race card saw total wagering of $1,001,439.

Catch An Ace (Jason Bartlett, $2.90) tagged Pelican Blue Chip (Dan Dube) in 1:55.2, the fastest of four $20,000 divisions in the opening round of the Petticoat Pacing Series for 3- and 4-year-old young ladies. The winner, a 4-year-old daughter of Bettor’s Delight, is now four-for-six this season and 13-for-23 in her career.

The boys take their turn Tuesday night (March 5), with four $20,000 events of their own in the beginning of the Sagamore Hill Pacing Series.

A season-debuting Queenace Blue Chip (Mark MacDonald) closed from seventh off the final turn, winning the $13,000 fifth-race pace (1:57.3) at a tidy 60-1. The $123.50 mutuel led exotics of $639 (exacta), $3,549 (triple) and $5,562 (superfecta).
