GUARANTEED $100,000 PICK 6 DEBUTS THURSDAY AT SPA

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. -- The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) will offer three different guaranteed wagers during the 2010 Saratoga Meet: a $100,000 Guaranteed Pick 6 on Thursdays, a $500,000 Guaranteed Late Pick 4 on Saturdays, and a $1 Million All-Graded Stakes Late Pick 4 on Travers Day, Saturday, August 28.

The $100,000 Guaranteed Thursday Pick 6 will be offered for the first time in 2010. This is a $2 minimum wager in which the bettor must correctly select the winners of six consecutive races. By guaranteeing the wager, NYRA will supplement the net difference if the total pool is less than $100,000.


This will be the second consecutive year that NYRA has offered a $500,000 guarantee on the Saturday Late Pick 4, a $1 minimum wager in which the bettor must correctly pick the winners of four consecutive races. By guaranteeing the wager, NYRA will supplement the net difference if the total pool is less than $500,000.

In lieu of the regular Pick 4 guarantee, on Travers Day, Saturday, August 28, NYRA will offer a $1 Million Guaranteed All-Graded Stakes Late Pick 4 featuring the Grade 1 Travers and the Grade 1 King’s Bishop.
