Washington, PA — On Tuesday (March 31) the live card at The Meadows Racetrack & Casino will feature two total pool guarantees — a $20,000 guarantee for the Pick-5 and a $5,000 guarantee for the Pick-4. Both are offered as part of the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program.

The Meadows added the “instant” Pick-5 guarantee after Monday’s Pick-5 was uncovered, resulting in a two-day carryover of $5,148.04, while the $5,000 Pick-4 guarantee is a regular feature each Monday and Tuesday.

Minimum wager for the Pick-4 (races four-seven) and Pick-5 (races 10-14) 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 for Tuesday’s program is 12:55 p.m.
