On Monday, July 7, The Meadows Racetrack & Casino will offer a $15,000 guaranteed pool for its Pick 5 wager as part of the United States Trotting Association's Strategic Wagering Initiative.

The Meadows added the “instant” guarantee after Thursday’s Pick 5 was uncovered, resulting in a two-day carryover of $4,290.75.

The Pick 5 guarantee will complement a $5,000 guaranteed pool for the Pick 4, a regular feature of the track’s Monday and Tuesday cards.

Minimum wager for the Pick 4 (Races 4-7) and Pick 5 (Races 12-16) is 50 cents. Since Pennsylvania law requires a minimum per-race wager of $2, a player wagering at the 50-cent level must bet at least four tickets.

First post for Monday’s program, which features a $100,000 Pennsylvania Stallions Series stake for two-year-old colt and gelding pacers, is 12:55 p.m.
