Tioga Downs is proud to announce, that it has partnered with the Southern Tier Harness Horsemen’s Association and Peter Kleinhans to offer its bettors a $6,000 Guaranteed Pick 6 on Sunday afternoons being tagged as 'Pick 6 Sundays' at Tioga Downs.
Beginning this Sunday, June 20, Tioga Downs will over a pick six that begins on Race 4 and which will run through Race 9 with a takeout rate of 21%, which is the lowest allowed in New York State. If the Pick 6 is not hit, there will be a 25% consolation payout, with 75% being carried over to the next Sunday of live racing.
“Bettors want their money guaranteed when they are going to put a ticket together for a Pick 6, and we are thankful that the STHHA and Peter Kleinhans are working with us to put this together,” said Jason Settlemoir, VP of Racing and Simulcast.
“We are hoping to get some more exposure out of the bet, we have already lowered our takeout rates to the state minimum, and by adding this maybe some of the thoroughbred players on Sunday afternoon will pick up a program and throw a few bucks at it. We are not afraid to give anything a try at Tioga, and we have the full support of our horsemen’s organization who are also willing to step out on a limb with us."
Tioga Downs (tiogadowns.com) races on Friday and Saturdays at 6:50 p.m., and Sunday afternoons at 1:30 p.m.
