By Tim Bojarski, for Batavia Downs
As a result of no winning ticket once again on Monday (Sept. 3), there is a $606 carryover and Batavia Downs will offer a $2,000 guaranteed early Pick-5 pool when racing resumes this afternoon (Sept. 5) at the oldest lighted harness track in America.
The Pick-5 is a 50-cent base wager that begins in race one and runs through race five. There is no consolation payoff, meaning if no one selects all five winners, the entire pool (minus takeout) will be carried over once again.
Batavia Downs is also featuring The New York State Sire Stake 3-year-old pacing colts and geldings today, with those events going in race one, five and six.
Post time for the first race is 5 p.m.
