The Late Pick 5, covering the final five races of every card at NYRA tracks, was not hit on Friday, resulting in a carryover of $114,873 on Saturday at Aqueduct Racetrack in Ozone Park, N.Y.
Buyer's Remorse started the sequence in Race 4 of the eight-race card on Friday, posting a victory for trainer Antonio Arriaga in a 6 ½-furlong starter allowance. Ridden by Trevor McCarthy over a fast track, Buyer's Remorse returned $9.90 on a $2 win wager.
Mr Phil rallied from sixth to register a three-quarter length victory in Race 5 at 12-1 odds for trainer James Ryerson. Piloted by jockey Jorge Vargas, Jr., Mr Phil won the six-furlong claiming sprint, paying $27.20.
Imperio D, the second-choice in a six-furlong maiden claimer for New York breds in Race 6, surged home a 5 ¾-length winner for trainer Rudy Rodriguez. Ridden by Manny Franco, Imperio returned $5.60.
A pair of big-price winners closed the card, starting with Poncho Song at 11-1 overtaking odds-on favorite Timed Out in the stretch and recording a 1 1/4-length score in Race 7. Poncho Song, trained by Mark Hennig and ridden by Vargas, Jr., paid $24.20.
New York-bred My Amanjena ensured the carryover in the eighth race finale, thundering home clear of fellow longshot King of American, who also would have initiated the carryover, for the 1 1/8-mile route. Off at 16-1, My Amanjena, ridden by Luis Rodriguez Castro and trained by Gregory DiPrima, returned $34.60.
