Officials with the Meadows have announced that the track has tripled the total-pool guarantee for its Monday (April 9) Pick 5 wager to $15,000 as part of the United States Trotting Association's Strategic Wagering Initiative.
While $5,000 Pick 5 guarantees are offered each card, the Meadows upped the ante when Saturday’s Pick 5 was uncovered, which resulted in a carryover of $3,797.72.
In addition, Monday’s card will include a $7,500 total-pool guarantee for the Pick 4, which is also a regular feature of each program at the Meadows.
The minimum wager for the Pick 4 (Races 4-7) and Pick 5 (Races 9-13) 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 Monday is 1:05 p.m.
