Yonkers Raceway Racing

Address: 810 McLean Ave, Yonkers, NY 10704, United States

Yonkers Raceway located at the corner of Central Park Ave and Yonkers near the border of New York City, opened in 1899. It is a one-half-mile standard bred harness racing dirt track and one of the few that offer harness racing all year.

Originally called the Empire City Race Track, Yonkers is now the home of three major harness events: the Yonkers Trot, Art Rooney Pace and Messenger Stakes. The later two are legs of the Trotting and Pacing Triple Crowns. In 2006, when Yonkers Raceway hosted both the Yonkers Trot and the Messenger Stakes, it became the first harness track in America to host two Triple Crown races on the same day.
