YONKERS, NY, Thursday, February 28, 2019—A
friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Friday evening’s (March 1st)
Pick 5 wager starts with a carryover of $5,170.86 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 7 through 11 Friday night. It has no consolation payoff,
meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Thursday night,
with consecutive sequence-busting winners of 72-1 and 28-1), the entire pool
(minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.
