A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Friday evening’s (Jan. 12th) Pick 5 wager starts with a double carryover of $15,113.25.
The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races 7 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.
First post for all evening programs is now 6:50 PM.
