Batavia Downs will join the United States Trotting Association's Strategic Wagering program Friday night (September 30) with the early Pick-5 pool guaranteed at $4,000.

The early Pick-5, which kicks off in Race 1, has an actual carryover of $2,422, and post time for that race is set for 6:15 p.m.

The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager that includes Race 1 through Race 5 during every racing program. It has no consolation payoff; meaning if no one selects all five winners, the entire pool moves to the late Pick-5, which begins with Race 7.
