September starts with a bang as Balmoral Park counts down to Super Night XXIII with a pair of guaranteed pools on Saturday, September 3

. The Pick 5 with a carryover of $3,908 and the Pick 4 will both have a guaranteed pool of $20,000. The complete 12-race program pages for both wagers are now available at www.ustrotting.com courtesy of Track Master.

The 50 cent Pick 5 starts on Race 2 and ends on Race 6. The opening leg looks like a Super Night preview between Hes So Hot and Dutch Richman. Hes So Hot storms into town after two winning performances at Springfield and DuQuoin. He paced the last quarter in :25.4 to win the Dudley Hanover. Dutch Richman returns to Balmoral where he has won his last three starts including the $61,500 Incredible Finale Stake on July 30. Race 2 post time is 8:30 Eastern, 7:30 Central and 5:30 Pacific.

The Pick 4 is on the final four races. The Balmoral Pick 4 is guaranteed nightly and currently offers the largest pools in the United States. Through August 31, $1,486,500 has been wagered on 53 guaranteed pools for a nightly average of $28,047.

Here are the nightly pool averages:

Sundays - $35,567
Saturdays - $24,760
Wednesdays - $19,485

The average Pick 4 payout is $2,698 for a dollar. The takeout every night has been reduced by 40 per cent, down to 15 per cent. The low 15 per cent takeout means that the average Pick 4 winner gets an extra $318. This Saturday the Pick 4 is on Races 10 thru 13.

Balmoral Park proudly presents Super Night XXIII on September 17. The special event first post has been moved to 6:30 Central. Balmoral will offer three guaranteed pools on the 14-race Super Night program.
