Yonkers Raceway to offer seeded Pick-5 pool on Thursdays

Yonkers, NY — Those that say nothing in this world is free may need to visit MGM Yonkers Raceway on Thursday nights to check out a new can’t-miss Pick-5 opportunity.

Starting March 30 and running for at least four weeks, the Pick-5 at MGM Yonkers will be seeded with $10,000 each Thursday courtesy of the Standardbred Owners Association of New York. The $10,000 will in effect serve as a man-made carryover to provide a unique wagering opportunity for customers.

In addition to the seeded money, the total pool for the Thursday Pick-5s will be guaranteed at $25,000 in partnership with the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering program. The sequence runs from races five through nine with a 50-cent minimum wager.

Free Trackmaster past performances for the sequence will be available on the USTA website and free DRF Harness Eye PPs can be found here.

Post time for Thursday and each live racing card at MGM Yonkers (Monday to Friday weekly) is 7 p.m. EDT.

Stakes action continues at MGM Yonkers on Friday with three divisions of the third round of the Blue Chip Matchmaker series for pacing mares and four splits of the MGM Borgata series for male pacers on Monday. The John Brennan Trotting series, which drew a record 48 nominations, kicks off on Wednesday (April 5).
