Washington, PA — Prompted by a three-day carryover of $22,931.41, The Meadows Racetrack & Casino has established a $40,000 total-pool guarantee for its Pick-5 wager on Saturday, (Feb. 4). The guarantee is offered as part of the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Initiative.

In addition, Saturday’s card includes a $5,000 total-pool guarantee for the Pick-4, a regular feature of each program at The Meadows.

Minimum wager for the Pick-4 (races four-seven) and 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 Saturday’s program is 1 p.m.
