YONKERS, NY, Saturday, March 19, 2015—A
friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Saturday night’s (March 19) Pick 5
wager begins with a tidy carryover of $3,500.50.
The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager
comprising races 7 through 11 during every racing program (or earlier if less
than 11 races). It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all
five winners (as was the case Friday evening), the entire pool (minus takeout)
moves to the next program.
Saturday’s gimmick includes the last three
divisions in the opening round of the George Morton Levy Memorial Pacing Series
(races 7,9 and 10).
