YONKERS' MONDAY DOUBLE-CARRYOVER PICK 5 GETS NOTICED
February 25, 2020
That's what happens with a double-carryover of $16,144.27 and a $35,000 guaranteed pool.
The guarantee was easily lapped by $71,034 of fresh investments, leaving a final pool of (approximately) $69,419.
The winning combination of:
8 Southwind Moroccan -Joe Bongiorno $11.60
5 Fox Valley Inferno - Matt Kakaley $3.30
2 Razor's Edge - George Brennan $7.60
4 Tiger Baron - Brennan - $12
5 Knocking Around - Brennan, $4.30
Returned $802.50 for every correct half-a-buck ticket. As an aide, Southwind Moroccan was a last to first winner in 1:53.3, despite throwing a shoe warming up.
The Pick 5 is a 50-cent base wager (races 5 through 9) with no consolation payoff. It had not been hit since this past Thursday (Feb. 13th).

CORRECTION - IMPORTANT UPDATE: We are pleased to report that the SOA of New York and MGM Yonkers have agreed to a one-month extension of the current Horsemen's Agreement that was to expire on June 30th. This will allow the parties the time necessary to negotiate a comprehensive, long-term Horsemen's Agreement. The Gaming Commission, which has the sole power to award race dates, has not awarded race dates for July as of this time. An earlier post had incorrectly indicated that race dates had been awarded.
