Another Record Pick 4 Pool At Los Alamitos Race Course

LOS ALAMITOS, CA—JANUARY 14, 2018—Los Alamitos Race Course had a record Pick Four pool for a Saturday night of $208,300 on January 13, a figure that is also the second highest ever for a night program at the southern California oval.

The pool is second only to the $239,868 wagered on Sunday, May 7, 2017. These are the only two occasions in which the early Pick Four pool has gone over the $200,000 mark during a night program at Los Alamitos.

The new early Pick Four mark for a Saturday evening crushed the previous track record of $172,805 posted on Saturday, May 3, 2014. A new Saturday record was already in place as nearly $180,000 had already been added to the pool while the horses were awaiting to enter the starting gate.

The week of racing at Los Alamitos began with a Friday night pool of $144,358 on January 12. That figure is the 10th highest ever for a Friday night. Los Alamitos offers two Pick Fours each racing night.

The early Pick Fours consist of races one through four. The late Pick Fours consist of the final four races on the card. To view Free Handicapping Tips and Pick Four selections, just visit losalamitos.com and click on the handicapping link.
