Racing resumes Monday at Yonkers

After being forced to cancel Friday night’s (January 28) card due to the major winter storm that hit the Northeast, harness racing is scheduled to resume tonight (January 31) at Yonkers Raceway.

The 12-race card features a $39,000 Open Handicap Pace and carryovers and guaranteed pools in both the Pick 5 and the Pick 6. The carryover in the Pick 6 rose to $9,757.64 after no tickets had six-of-six on Thursday night (January 27), and that triggered a $20,000 guaranteed pool. Meanwhile, the Pick 5 carryover is $6,580.21, and the guaranteed pool in that sequence will also be $20,000.

The guarantees in the Pick 5 and Pick 6 are being offered as part of the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program. Free past performances for both wagers, courtesy of TrackMaster, are available here. The Pick 6, which begins in race three, and the Pick 5, which starts in race five, have a takeout rate of 20 percent.

Tonight’s action gets underway at 6:55 p.m.
