YONKERS, NY,
Monday, February 24, 2020—Consider this a friendly reminder from Yonkers
Raceway, where Tuesday night’s (Feb. 25th) Pick 5 wager begins with
a $8,398.22 carryover and $20,000 guaranteed pool.
The guarantee has
been approved by the New York State Gaming Commission and is in conjunction
with the U.S. Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program. If the
sequence was not hit (as was the case Monday night [Feb. 24th] after
41-1 Grand Master [Austin Siegelman, $84] won the last leg, the entire pool
(minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.
As a reminder,
Yonkers’ Pick 5 remains a 50-cent base wager (5 through 9).
