Washington, PA — On Friday (Feb. 27) The Meadows Racetrack & Casino will offer a $5,000 guaranteed total 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 Wednesday’s Pick-5 was uncovered, resulting in a carryover of $1,324.70.
Minimum wager for the Pick-5 (races eight-12) 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 Friday’s program is 6:55 p.m.
