Yonkers, NY — A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Monday night’s (Aug. 24) Pick-5 wager begins with a carryover of $3,863.81 and a $10,000 guaranteed pool (program pages available at www.yonkersraceway.com).

The Pick-5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races seven through 11 during every racing program. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Saturday), the entire pool (minus takeout) moves to the next program.
