YONKERS, NY, Monday, October 14, 2013—A
rare double-carryover for Yonkers Raceway’s Pick 5 makes Tuesday night’s wager is
as enticing as any around.
After no one took home Monday night’s grand prize, the ensuing carryover of
$13,097.90 means the “traditional” $10,000 guaranteed Tuesday pool now swells
to two-and-a-half times that…or a cool $25,000.
The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager offered on races
5 through 9 nightly. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects
all five winners (as was the case both Saturday and Monday), the entire pool
(minus takeout) carries over to the next racing program.
The Pick 5 offers that $10,000 guaranteed pool
every Monday and Tuesday (in conjunction with the US Trotting Association’s
Strategic Wagering Program), with program pages for the “guarantee” days
available for perusal at www.yonkersraceway.com.
The Raceway's five-night-per-week live schedule
continues, with first post every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday
at 7:10 PM. Evening simulcasting accompanies all live programs, with afternoon
simulcasting available around the NYRA schedule.
