Sacramento, CA — Watch and Wager LLC, operator of Cal Expo harness, has announced that the guarantee on the 16 percent takeout Pick-4 has been raised from $20,000 to $30,000 for the remainder of January.

Racing is now being conducted three nights a week with the trotters and pacers in action on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.

The Pick-4 is one of four wagers offered on each program with that reduced 16 percent takeout rate. In addition to the 20 cent Pick- 4, there is the 50 cent Pick-5; the 10 cent Jackpot 6 and the 10 cent Hi-Five on the nightcap.

To help players get a head start, announcer Gary Seibel and handicapper Dave Brower do an informative and entertaining simulcast seminar prior to the Pick-4 that has proven to be very popular.
