Published: April 20, 2011 08:10 pm EDT

Maywood Park, with the support of the USTA Strategic Wagering initiative, will offer its first $10,000 guaranteed Pick 4 pool on Thursday, April 21

. With the help of a $5,143 carryover, the guarantee will be surpassed with ease. The track is estimating a final Pick 4 pool of $20,000.

The Maywood Pick 4 is contested on the final four races on the card. The wager will consist of Races 8 thru 11 on Thursday night. The Pick 4 has a $1 minimum bet and as always is offered with a low 15 per cent takeout.

On Race 11, which is the final leg of the Pick 4, the High 5 offers the second carryover of the evening. The object of the High 5 is to select the top five finishers in that race.

The wager is offered with a 10 cent minimum and the Thursday carryover is $4,767. The estimated final pool will also be $20,000.

Balmoral Park also offers guaranteed Pick 4 pools each weekend. With the temporary absence of The Meadowlands and the help of the USTA, the Balmoral Park guaranteed pools are the highest Pick 4 pools in the United States. Since the USTA initiative began on April 2, the Balmoral Pick 4 pools are averaging $36,617.

Free program pages for the Thursday Maywood Pick 4 and all future guaranteed pool information are now available on the USTA handicapping page at ustrotting.com.
