YONKERS’ TUESDAY MATINEE PICK 5 FEATURES $7,500 CARRYOVER

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

YONKERS, NY, Monday, January 11, 2016—A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Tuesday afternoon’s (Jan. 12) Pick 5 wager begins with an enticing carryover of $7,500.  

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


Reminder, it’s a matinee card with a first post of 1 PM.
