With a $10,000 guarantee, the Xtreme Pick 4 at Georgian Downs will offer the biggest multi-leg betting opportunity in the history of the Innisfil, Ontario racetrack

.

Saturday’s Xtreme Pick 4, which is sponsored by Standardbred Canada and Georgian Downs, starts in race four and covers the following races:

Race 4 - 18 horse 1 5/8 mile Xtreme Challenge
Race 5 – 9 horses 1 ¼ mile Xtreme Rewind
Race 6 – 9 horse 1/8 mile Xtreme Dash For The Cash
Race 7 – 15 horse 2 ½ mile Xtreme Classic

Because of the extended field sizes, the bet offers customers a total of 21,870 possible combinations, versus the standard 6,561 possible combinations for a wager with nine horses in each race. Combined with the $10,000 Guarantee, the chance of a big payout is very likely.

For customers on track and at most simulcast locations, the minimum bet for the Xtreme Pick 4 is just 20 cents. That means, for example, that for just $16.20 invested, a horseplayer could choose three horses in each of the four Pick 4 races.

As for the Return On Investment (ROI), consider this: In the past four editions of Xtreme Horsepower, the amount wagered into the Pick 4 pools has been the following:

2010: Total Pool - $3,126
2009: Total Pool - $3,829
2008: Total Pool - $2,159
2007: Total Pool - $3,627

With a guaranteed pool, the 2011 bet promises to be a wonderful betting opportunity.

Take note, the Xtreme program of harness racing starts at 6:00 p.m, with fourth race post time scheduled for approximately 7:30 p.m.
