Indiana Grand will celebrate the richest day in turf racing with a special $100,000-guaranteed Pick 5 Pool Wednesday, Aug. 12 for Caesars Stakes Day. The wager offers one of the lowest take outs in North America at 11.99 percent.
The $100,000-Guaranteed Pick 6 gets underway in the fifth race and extends through the ninth race. It will include the $150,000 Indiana Grand Stakes for three-year-old fillies on the turf in the seventh race as well as the 15th running of the $150,000 Caesars Stakes for three-year-olds on the turf, slated as the eighth race.
“Caesars Stakes Day is one of the biggest afternoons of the year for us, and with the Pick 5 being one of our most popular wagers, we wanted to add a nice guarantee to link both of them together,” said Eric Halstrom, vice president and general manager of racing at Indiana Grand. “Both the Caesars Stakes and the Indiana Grand Stakes turned out with full fields and are flanked with some pretty competitive races. It should be a nice sequence for our Pick 5 with a little added incentive as a bonus.”
Live racing is held Monday through Thursday beginning at 2:20 p.m. Three more Saturday programs are slated for all-Quarter Horse days Aug. 8, Oct. 3 and Oct. 24. The Aug. 8 program will begin at 10 a.m.
