YONKERS, NY, Thursday, June 28, 2018—A
friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Friday evening’s (June 29th)
Pick 5 wager starts with a carryover of $4,372.31 and a $15,000 guaranteed
pool. The guarantee is in conjunction with the U.S. Trotting Association’s
Strategic Wagering Program.
The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager
comprising races 6 through 10 Friday (if 11 or less races, the gimmick is the
last five races on the card). It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one
selects all five winners (as was the case Thursday night), the entire pool
(minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.
