NYRA Bets Late Pick 5 returns for Belmont Fall Championship Meet
by Najja Thompson
Following the debut of the NYRA Bets Late Pick 5 during the final week of racing at Saratoga Race Course, today the New York Racing Association announced that beginning this Saturday, September, 24, the NYRA Bets Late Pick 5 will be added to the wagering menu at Belmont Park on all days when there are 10 or more thoroughbred races.
The popular multi-race wager will cover the last five races of each 10 race card during the Belmont Fall Championship meet and feature the same 15 percent takeout rate and $0.50 bet minimum as the existing early Pick 5.
The NYRA Bets Late Pick 5 will have a mandatory payout each time the wager is offered during the Belmont Fall Championship meet.
The late Pick 4 and Pick 6 will continue to be offered at Belmont on race days covering the final four and six races, respectively.
