Published: April 19, 2011 02:38 pm EDT

The Woodbine Entertainment Group and the Central Ontario Standardbred Association have extended the $100,000 guarantee on the early Pick-4 pool offered on Woodbine Racetrack's live Saturday standardbred racing cards until the end of the Woodbine meet

.

The early Pick-4 pledge on Saturdays was raised earlier this month to $100,000 through the end of April, and that guarantee is now available until May 14.

Also, the $50,000 guaranteed early Pick-4 will continue on Monday evenings, but the minimum pots on Thursdays and Fridays will be raised to $50,000. The first day of the $50,000 standardbred guarantee is Friday, April 22.

The early Pick-4 has provided players with good payoffs. On Saturday April 2, the bet returned $578.80 for a $1 wager from a pool size of $116,138. On April 9, it paid $1,840 to bettors from a topped-up pool of $100,000 ($90,615 was bet), and on April 16, from a pool of $101,660, the Pick-4 paid $957.85.

On the thoroughbred side, the early Pick-4 will now enjoy a $50,000 guarantee every live racing afternoon, beginning this Friday, April 22. When Wednesday evening thoroughbred cards are added on April 27, the early Pick-4 guarantee will be set at $75,000.
