Yonkers Raceway at Empire City Casino by MGM Resorts, founded in 1899, is a one-half-mile standardbred harness racing dirt track and New York state-approved slots racino located at the intersection of Central Park Avenue and Yonkers Avenue in Yonkers, New York. The 122-year-old track, which hosted the legendary Seabiscuit several times when it was a thoroughbred track, recently underwent its first renovation in more than 15 years to enhance the racing experience which Insiders will also see firsthand. Live harness racing takes place at the historic track Monday through Friday with a nightly post time of 7:15 p.m.
