With the new season comes a change in the wagering format, as superfectas will be offered on all 'even' races. The superfecta, which is now a 50-cent base wager, will offer a carryover pool in the event of an uncovered combination.
The Pick 4 debuts on Sunday, March 11 with a $5,000 guaranteed pool, offered in conjunction with the USTA's Strategic Wagering program.
After opening night, Chester will race primarily on a Wednesday-Thursday-Friday-Sunday schedule, with first post daily at 12:40 p.m.
