Yonkers, NY — Just a friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Thursday night’s Pick-5 wager begins with a carryover of $3,704.27.

The Pick-5 is a 50 cent base wager offered on races five through nine nightly. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Monday), the entire pool (minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.
