Super sized Hi-5’s to be offered on Tuesday and Wednesday nights at MGM Northfield Park

Beginning Tuesday night (March 4), MGM Northfield Park will debut it’s “Super-Sized” Super High 5’s – by offering four 10-horse fields per card every Tuesday and Wednesday evening – with 20-cent Super High 5 wagering offered on all four of the events (Races 1, 7, 10 & 13 each night).

In cooperation with the Ohio Harness Horsemen’s Association and local horsemen, Northfield will change it’s wagering menu nightly (beginning March 4). The popular 20-cent Super High 5 wager will now be offered four times per card, on Races 1, 7, 10 & 13.  Full 10-horse fields will be slotted in those races on Tuesday and Wednesday nights whenever the horse population permits. Northfield will pay every starter in the race if all 10 go to the gate.

The 20-cent Super High 5 (also known as a pentafecta) requires the player to select the top five finishers in a given race in order. If no one selects all five correctly, Northfield pays a 25% consolation payoff to patrons with the highest number of correct selections, and the other 75% of the pool will be carried over to the next Super High 5 race. Along with the possibility of huge payouts, Northfield’s Super High Five has a low 14% takeout rate, which makes it even more attractive to horseplayers across the simulcast world.

Northfield’s March racing schedule is every Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday at 6:00 post. The new wagering menu (adding Super High 5’s and dropping superfectas on Races 7 & 10) will go into effect on Tuesday, March 4. The 10-horse “Super-Sized” fields will only be drawn for Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but even Saturday and Sunday nights will feature the same wagering format with 9-horse fields in those four High 5 races.
