A friendly reminder from Yonkers Raceway that Friday night’s Pick 5 wager begins with some holiday-shopping-approved coin, as in a carryover of $1,928.60.

The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager comprising races 7 through 11 during every racing program. It has no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners (as was the case Tuesday afternoon), the entire pool (minus takeout) moves to the next program.
