I can't answer officially, but when we discussed the Pick-5 we had planned to.

Terrific move. As is the Thursday P4 cross promotion with Penn National should both be great.

David Grening ‏@DRFGrening 51m: While Trakus will be unveiled at the Belmont meet, it will not be up and running opening day. Expect week of 9-25, maybe week earlier.

What's the timeframe for Trakus
data actually be made available in a usable format? No real use as it's presently presented

agree that this a great step forward for NY racing, but the placement of the pick5 i could do without

not giving too much consideration to those on the left coast who would have to start their day even earlier to take part in this wager, just saying

I agree with you on the placement of the pk5. I think it would be a much bigger hit if it were the last 5 races of the day.

With great respect to my NYRA friends.....ABOUT TIME!!! It's really been a fun wagering opportunity in CA.

Also, Happy & Healthy New Year (5774) to the DT "tribe's folk."

So they'll basically just have to do what west coast NFL fans have been doing for decades? If it were the last five races instead, people would complain about it cannibalizing the Pick 6. A really good wagering opportunity is worth getting up early for IMO.
