Gulfstream releases wagering menu for 2010 meet

Gulfstream Park has announced its wagering menu for the 2011 Thoroughbred

meet that begins January 5. Among the different wagers offered will be the

following:

Win, place, show, Daily Double, exacta and trifecta wagers will be a $1

minimum wager.

"We're optimistic and excited about the new wagers we're introducing and the

fact Gulfstream will be offering many of the lowest takeouts in the country,"

said Steve Calabro, president and general manager of Gulfstream Park. "We think

the Pick-5, Pick-4's and 10 cent Pick-6 creates more opportunities for our fans.

"This is just part of our commitment to our customers. Those attending

Gulfstream this year will also notice nearly a 50 percent increase in our

self-service betting terminals."

Gulfstream will start each day with a 12:55 p.m. (ET), first race post time.

The early Pick-4 will begin with the second race while the late Pick-4 will be

on the last four races. The Pick-5 will be on the day's last five races and the

Pick-6 on the day's last six. The Pick-5, Pick-4 and Pick-6 wagers will be

accepted only at self-service terminals.

The 10 cent Pick-6 will be awarded to one unique ticket. On days there are

multiple winners, 60 percent of the pool will be shared equally while 40 percent

goes back into the jackpot. Click
