YONKERS’ TUESDAY PICK 5 FEATURES NEARLY $2,300 CARRYOVER

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

YONKERS, NY, Monday, January 9, 2016—A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Tuesday evening’s (Jan. 10) Pick 5 wager starts with a carryover of $2,297.87.  

The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races 7 through 11 (for programs with at least 11 races…if not, then it goes as races 6 through 10).  It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the Monday night), the entire pool (minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.


Note that Tuesdays are now night cards, with first post at 7:10 PM.
