Northfield, OH – Sunday’s (Oct. 12) Early Pick-4 at MGM Northfield Park delivered a massive return of $29,551 for a $1 bet, fueled by a double carryover from Saturday’s action-packed stakes card that swelled the pool to nearly $100,000.
The sequence started without much of a hitch as the first three winners Johnny Sack ($8.40), Noras Magic Dragon ($9.60), and Rumor Has It ($5.40) all delivered solid performances as mid-range prices. It was the final leg that blew the roof off. Bluevelvet, dismissed at 85-1, stunned the field and lit up the tote board with a $173.60 win payout, propelling the Pick-4 into monster territory.
As a reminder Northfield Park offers two Pick-4 sequences nightly in races two and 11, with the bettor-friendly 14% low takeout.
MGM Northfield Park alters the calendar slightly this week to include five evenings on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. For more information on live racing and promotions, visit www.northfieldpark.com.
