On Wednesday night (November 9), Batavia Downs’ early Pick-5 wager will become part of the USTA’s Strategic Wagering program and will have a guaranteed pool of $3,500.

The early Pick-5, which kicks off in Race 1, has an actual carryover of $1,380. Post time for Race 1 is 6:15 p.m.

The Pick-5 is a 50-cent base wager that includes races one through five during every racing program. There is no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners, the entire pool moves to the late Pick-5 that begins in the seventh race.
