Crete, IL — Balmoral Park will offer a guaranteed Pick-4 pool of $70,000 this Wednesday (Feb. 20).

Because the $1 minimum wager was not hit on Sunday (Feb. 17), a big carryover of $26,811 will be added to Wednesday’s wagering pool.

The popular Pick-4 wager is offered on races 7-10 on Wednesday’s card.

Once again the Pick-4, which has a low 15 percent takeout, has a one dollar minimum and features a guaranteed pool each night.

Handicappers across North America can get a head start on their competition with free 12 line program pages for the guaranteed pools courtesy of the USTA Strategic Wagering Program and TrackMaster on the handicapping section at www.ustrotting.com.
