Changes to take
effect Saturday, November 11
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ (November 9, 2017) – The
Meadowlands Racetrack is announcing a small change to its wagering format that
will take effect when live racing resumes this Saturday, November 11.
With the start of the Pick 10 Survivor on Race 1, the
50-cent Pick Five will be moved back to start on Race 2 to avoid overlap
between the two wagers.
In addition, the early Pick Four will move back to start on
Race 4 and the late Pick Four will now start on Race 8.
The guarantees for all four wagers will remain in place. The
Pick 10 Survivor will carry a $10,000 guarantee, the Pick Five and early Pick
Four will have a $25,000 guarantee, and the late Pick Four will have a $50,000
guarantee.
“As we continue to see how the new Pick 10 Survivor plays
out, we wanted to make sure that our other multi-race wagers were not being
stepped on,” explained Jason Settlemoir, Meadowlands COO/GM. “With these
changes, we hope horseplayers will be able to focus on each multi-race wager.”
Live racing resumes Saturday, November 11 with a 12-race
program beginning at 7:15 p.m.
