Meadowlands: Big guaranteed pools in pick 5, pick 6 on Saturday

Fans of the Meadowlands multi-leg wagers will no doubt be betting with both hands Saturday (Sept. 12) night, as after Friday night's early 20-cent Pick-5 and 20-cent Pick-6 failed to yield a winning ticket, each will offer big guaranteed pools.

Thirty-two to one longshot Lear Seelster won the first race at the Meadowlands Friday night, leading to an early 20-cent Pick-5 that did not get hit. Those correctly selecting four winners cashed in for $108.22.

Those who play the wager Saturday evening will have a shot at a huge score, as a carryover of $37,158 led Big M management to guarantee the pool at $100,000. Bettors can expect a final pool much larger than that as the last time a Pick-5 had a carryover on July 31, a total pool of $382,726 was the result.

The Pick-6's payoff leg was taken by 9-1 chance Stonebridge Reef, resulting in a carryover of $6,810. The track has guaranteed that pool at $20,000 for Saturday's card. Those who had five winners Friday walked away with $71.94. The last Pick-6 carryover (also on July 31) resulted in a total pool of $74,489.

Free past performances for both Saturday’s Early 20-cent Pick-5 (Races 1 through 5) and 20-cent Pick-6 (Races 3 through 8) are available at The Big M's website, playmeadowlands.com.
