YONKERS' TUESDAY CARD DECIMATED BY WEATHER, TRAFFIC
BY FRANK DRUCKER, Publicity Director, Empire City @ Yonkers Raceway
YONKERS, NY, Tuesday, July 15, 2014—Yonkers Raceway's Tuesday card has been decimated by weather and weather-related (flooding) traffic issues, primarily at and around the George Washington Bridge.
As of this writing (about 6:50 PM ET), here's the latest…
…there are 22 scratches, the vast number being judges (transportation).
…post time has been temporarily reset to 7:30 PM (from the usual 7:10 PM), to allow many of the drivers more time to arrive.
Due to the abbreviated field, the wagering menu has been diced and sliced as such…
--3rd race -- no Pick 4
--4th race – no Pick 3
--5th race -- no Pick 5
--6th race – non-wagering/purse only (three horses)
