Washington, PA — A tough Thursday (Aug. 20) for handicappers will lead to a potentially lucrative Friday (Aug. 21) at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows.
With several longs hots hitting the board in the day’s final races, there were no winning tickets sold in the Late Pick-4, the Pick-5, and the pentafecta on Thursday. The Meadows will now offer a combined $85,000 in guaranteed pools on Friday evening, with first post set for 5:10 p.m. (EDT).
Races 1-4 on the Friday card will make up the Early Pick-4, which will have a guaranteed pool of $15,000, including a carryover of $4,560.
Races 7-11 will comprise the Pick-5, which carries over $4,038. The pool will be guaranteed to $20,000.
Finally, the evening will conclude with the 20-cent pentafecta in Race 11, which will have a guaranteed pool of $50,000, including a two-day carryover of $14,544.
Friday’s guaranteed pools are offered through a partnership including The Meadows, the USTA’s Strategic Wagering program, and the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association.
