Yonkers, NY — Yonkers Raceway returns from its mid-season hiatus Monday night (June 13) as does evening simulcasting.

The five-program per week (Mon/Thu/Fri/Sat at 7:10 p.m., Tue at 1:00 p.m.) schedule is back, while afternoon simulcasting continues daily.

Saturday’s (June 11) 148th Belmont Stakes finds Belmont Park with an early 11:35 a.m. first post, meaning select mutuel windows open at 10:30 a.m.

As a bit of a carrot for Monday’s (June 13) return of live racing, there’s a Pick-5 carryover of $1,207.53 (50-cent base wager, races seven through 11).

As always, a complete schedule is available at www.empirecitycasino.com.
