YONKERS’ SATURDAY PICK 5 FEATURES $2,000 CARRYOVER

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

YONKERS, NY, Friday, July 28, 2017—A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Saturday evening’s (July 29th) Pick 5 wager starts with a carryover of $2,002.60.  


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