Yonkers, NY — Yonkers Raceway’s Friday evening (Jan. 12) Pick-5 wager starts with a double carryover of $15,113.25 as well as a $40,000 guaranteed pool.
The instant guarantee is in conjunction with the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program.
The Pick-5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races seven through 11 during every racing card. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Monday and Tuesday nights), the entire pool (minus takeout) moves to the next racing program.
Friday’s full-card program is available through Empire City’s entries/results page at this link, while Pick-5 program pages are available at this link.
