Yonkers, NY — A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Monday evening’s (March 19) Pick-5 wager starts with a carryover of $1,545.41 and a $10,000 guaranteed pool. The guarantee is in conjunction with the U.S. Trotting’s Association’s Strategic Wagering Program.
The Pick-5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races 7 through 11. If less than 11 races, it’s the final five races during that particular card. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners, as was the case Sunday afternoon, the entire pool, minus takeout, moves to the next racing program.
