YONKERS’ THURSDAY PICK 5 FEATURES $3,434 CARRYOVER

BY FRANK DRUCKER, Publicity Director, Empire City @ Yonkers Raceway

YONKERS, NY, Wednesday, April 8, 2015—A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Thursday night’s (April 9) Pick 5 wager begins with a carryover of $3,434.74.


The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races 7 through 11 nightly. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Tuesday afternoon), the entire pool (minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.
