Yonkers, NY — Yonkers Raceway has announced a pair of changes to its live harness schedule.

Please be advised that live racing is scheduled for Memorial Day (Monday, May 31) — amending the original calendar. After that program, live racing returns Saturday night, June 5.

Also note that beginning the week of Monday, June 28, Yonkers shall discontinue Wednesday nights and return to Thursday nights. Thus, the final live Wednesday is June 23 and the “first” live Thursday is July 1.

Yonkers’ current live schedule (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday) remains in effect, with first post at 7:10 p.m. Evening simulcasting accompanies all live programs, with afternoon simulcasting — including Friday’s Black-Eyed Susan and Saturday’s Preakness from Pimlico — available around the NYRA schedule. Thursday afternoon simulcasting ends at approximately 5:30 p.m.
