Harness: Meadowlands, NYRA team up for Cross Country Pick 5 on Saturday

The Meadowlands is once again joining forces with the New York Racing Association to offer an exciting wager on Saturday (Oct. 30), the 50-cent Cross Country Pick-5, which will include three Breeders Crown events.

The sequence will include three races from The Big M and two from Belmont Park. Players will be able to experience a quicker fix than usual with a five-leg bet, as the entire wager will be conducted from start to finish in just 90 minutes.

The sequence (with probable post times):

* Leg A: Meadowlands Race 7 (2:51 p.m.)
* Leg B: Meadowlands Race 8 (3:27 p.m.)
* Leg C: Belmont Race 7 (3:47 p.m.)
* Leg D: Meadowlands Race 9 (4:01 p.m.)
* Leg E: Belmont Race 8 (4:21 p.m.)

The partnership is nothing new to NYRA and The Meadowlands, as they teamed up for the same wager on Hambletonian Day. Last week proved that Cross Country Pick-5 players can make a score, as the payoff of $28,318 proves.
