Meadowlands: Pick 5, Pick 6 both have carryovers

No winning tickets were sold in two of the popular multi-leg wagers at the Meadowlands Saturday night, setting up a pair of carryovers sure to titillate players when racing resumes Friday at 7:15 p.m.

Despite 4-5 favorite Caviart Rockland winning the final leg, no one held a winning ticket on the 20-cent Pick 5, which led to a carryover of $52,665. Big M management announced that a guaranteed pool of $150,000 will be offered for the wager with the low 15 percent takeout. The odds of the winners for the first four legs were 8-1, 10-1, 5-1, and 30-1. The pool total was $82,618, and those who had four out of five cashed in for $103.72.

The 30-1 shot Caviart Eva, who upset 2-5 favorite Next Level Stuff in the fourth race, was the key to both carryovers, as she began a 20-cent Pick 6 sequence that saw the following five winners score at odds of 4-5, 2-5, 10-1, 12-1, and 4-5. The Pick-6 pool, which totaled $21,226, will have a carryover of $13,524, with much more expected to be pumped through the windows Friday. Those who went five for six got back $126.10.
