Dozen Enter Rooney, Eight For Lismore

Published: May 21, 2013 08:43 pm EDT

A dozen three-year-olds - nine colts and three geldings - have been entered for the 23rd edition of Yonkers Raceway's Art Rooney Pace.

The number of entrants resulted in a pair of $40,000 eliminations this Saturday night (May 25, card to be drawn later this afternoon), with the first four finishers in each elimination qualifying for the $275,000 final, set for Saturday night, June 1.

Doctor Butch as a $30,000 supplemental entrant, while Duel In The Sun, Just Bettor and Mach It So are the geldings.

The companion event to the Rooney, the Lismore for three-year-old pacing fillies, attracted eight lasses. It's a one-dash-for-the-cash event, worth $117,060, and also goes Saturday night, June 1.
