Beginning Friday, June 13, the Raceway offers an increase of approximately 15 percent on all overnight races.
The new purse structure shall range from $10,000 (for non-winners of $5,000 in last six starts) to $44,000 (for the trio of weekly Opens/Open Handicaps). The “old” range went from $9,000 to $38,000.
