Officials with the Meadows have announced that the raceway has doubled the pool guarantee for the track’s Tuesday (May 29) Pick 5 wager.
The pool guarantee has been doubled to $10,000 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 Friday’s Pick 5 was uncovered, which resulted in a carryover of $1,350.71.
In addition, Tuesday’s card includes a $7,500 total-pool guarantee for the Pick 4, also a regular feature of each program at the Meadows.
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 Tuesday is 1:05 p.m.
