YR - YONKERS' THURSDAY PICK 5 FEATURES $7,500 CARRYOVER

 BY FRANK DRUCKER, Publicity Director, Empire City @ Yonkers Raceway
           
 YONKERS, NY, Thursday, June 27, 2013--Yonkers Raceway's Thursday night Pick 5 comes complete with a $7,500 carryover....actually $7,500 and three cents, to be precise.

 Yonkers' two-week-old Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager offered on races 5 through 9 nightly. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Tuesday), the entire pool carries over to the next racing program.

The Pick 5 also offers a $10,000 guaranteed pool every Monday and Tuesday.


The Raceway's five-night-per-week live schedule continues, with first post every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:10 PM. Evening simulcasting accompanies all live programs, with afternoon simulcasting available around the NYRA schedule.
