YONKERS, NY,
Wednesday, June 12, 2019—Yonkers Raceway’s Pick 5 guarantee completes its first
week Thursday night (June 13th).
As part of the
U.S. Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program and with the approval of
the New York State Gaming Commission, a minimum $10,000 pot is available every
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evening.
The first two
pools—more than $13,000 and $11,000, respectively—eclipsed that magic
threshold.
The Pick 5 is a
50-cent base wager comprising either races 6 through 10 (10-race card) or 7
through 11 (more than 10-race card). It has no consolation payoff.
Thursday’s Pick 5
program pages accompany this release.
