The Pick 5 has a 50-cent minimum denomination and a low 15 percent takeout.
Last year’s Stephen Foster Preview Day Late Pick 5 handled more than $1.1 million.
Additionally, no bettors hit the Derby City 6 Jackpot, which triggered a full carryover of $81,300 for Races 6-11 on Saturday. The Derby City 6 Jackpot has a 20-cent minimum denomination with low 15% takeout and requires bettors to have the only winning ticket to take down the jackpot. If there are multiple winning tickets, 90% of the day’s pool is paid out with 10% carrying to the next race day. If there are no winning tickets, the entire day’s pool is carried to the next race day.
Saturday’s wagering menu also includes a special all-turf, all-stakes Pick 4 that includes Races 5, 7, 9 and 11.
