Yonkers: Pick 5 carryover, guaranteed pool on Monday

George Brennan-driven Rockathon and Sadiq Hanover knocked off the favorites in their respective races on Friday night (August 20) at Yonkers Raceway, leading to no winning Pick 5 tickets being held. As a result, there will be a $4,273.13 carryover and a $15,000 guaranteed pool in the wager on Monday night's (August 23) program.

The guarantee in the Pick 5 is being offered as part of the United States Trotting Association's Strategic Wagering Program. The Pick 5, which begins in race five, has a takeout rate of 20 percent.

The feature on the program was the $45,000 Open Handicap Trot, and it went to 1-2 choice Felicityshagwell S (Dan Dube) in front-stepping fashion in 1:54 flat. That was career win number nine for the 6-year-old Maharajah mare trained by Ake Svanstedt for owner Knutsson Trotting Inc. Now an earner of $340,790, she paid $3.10 to win and keyed a $17.20 exacta and a $334.00 trifecta.

Monday night's 12-race card at Yonkers starts at 7:15 p.m.
