Washington, PA — The Meadows Racetrack & Casino has increased — to $12,500 — the total-pool guarantee for its Tuesday (Nov. 17) Pick-4 wager as part of the United States Trotting Association’s Strategic Wagering Program.

While $5,000 Pick-4 guarantees are regular features each Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, The Meadows sweetened the pot after Monday’s Pick-4 was uncovered, resulting in a carryover of $3,349.48.

Minimum wager for the Pick-4 (races four-seven) 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.

Tuesday’s program also features a $1,028.40 carryover in the Pick-5, races 11-15.
