Washington, PA — On Monday (July 7), The Meadows Racetrack & Casino will offer a $15,000 guaranteed pool for its Pick-5 wager as part of the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program.
The Meadows added the “instant” guarantee after Thursday’s Pick-5 was uncovered, resulting in a two-day carryover of $4,290.75.
The Pick-5 guarantee will complement a $5,000 guaranteed pool for the Pick-4, a regular feature of the track’s Monday and Tuesday cards.
Minimum wager for the Pick-4 (races four-seven) and Pick-5 (races 12-16) 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 Monday’s program, which features a $100,000 Pennsylvania Stallion Series stake for 2-year-old colt and gelding pacers, is 12:55 p.m.
