YONKERS, NY, Tuesday, July 17, 2018—A
friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Friday evening’s (July 20th)
Pick 5 wager starts with a carryover of $3,150.04 and a $10,000 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 7 through 11 (if less than 11 races, than the gimmick is the
last five races). It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all
five winners (as was the case Tuesday night), the entire pool (minus takeout)
moves to the next racing program.
