MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!

One week from tonight (Friday, May 8th, 2026), Yonkers Raceway will be hosting an OUTSTANDING night of racing, featuring the Grade 2, $477,000 MGM Borgata Pacing Series Final, the Grade 2, $456,000 Ursula McIntyre F&M Pacing Series Final, along with the $100,000 Consolations for both events!

But that’s not all....
