Gulfstream Park plans a 9-race card Thursday, with a 1:15 PM first post. 68 entries are listed, with no stakes races.
In
Wednesday's racing action, a special added race day to their normal
Thursday - Sunday meet schedule - 58 starters ran 8 races, with two
favorites entering the winners circle.
No favorite finished worse than
fourth, which led to smalish
payouts.
A 5:1 win by Marcelino in the 4th race over favorite Honolulu Express in a $20k claimer was the day's upset win. Travelin Gambler at 2:1 won the sole 2 year-old race in the 5th; a $50,000 claimer.
Forty-six horses competed in the Rainbow 6 races (#3-8), and the growing carryover surpasses $2 million to start today.
Here are Wednesday's late race payouts.
Late Pick 4 paid: $116.15 Late Pick 5 paid: $564.25 Rainbow 6 paid: $623.90 to approx. 216 winners.
The
Rainbow 6 pool wagering was $241,465. Today starts day 39 of this
Spring-Summer meet, and day 40 of the Rainbow 6 Carryover.
The last
single winning Jackpot payout was way back on February 15 for $227,506.
Gulfstream paid out all the money in their mandatory payout session on
Florida Derby Day, March 30th. Since then, the jackpot has grown.
Carryovers:
The sole carryover is the Rainbow 6 at $2,035,367 as we start today.
Good Luck!
Gulfstream Park has added today, Wednesday June 5, as a live racing day and the biggest attraction is a Rainbow 6 carryover that has grown to $1.977,433.
Conditions are listed as Fast and Firm for the eight-race card. with first post at 1:15 p.m.
The Rainbow 6, a 20-cent per combination only bet, is on races three to eight with the sequence scheduled to start at 2:15 p.m.
Barring late scratches, there will be 49 starters in the Rainbow 6 races.
That is a low number for the Rainbow 6. Many syndicates will undoubtedly be going deep in many races, and likely going ALL in some races
That decreases the chances of there being just one ticket with the winners of all six races.
The carryover is now 38 days old--the number of days without the jackpot/carryover payoff requirement of just one ticket with the winners of all six Rainbow 6 races.
Today's Rainbow 6 lineup consists of five claiming races and one maiden claiming race.
A Rainbow 6 carryover that has grown to almost $1.9 million and a one mile dirt stakes for older horses are highlights of Sunday's 12-race card at Gulfstream Park.
First post is 1:15 p.m. and conditions are listed as Fast and Firm,
The carryover is $1,887,345 on the Rainbow 6, which is a 20 cents per combination only bet. It is on races six to eleven, with the sequence set to start at 3:52 p.m.
The 10th race feature is the $75,000 Big Red Stakes. Mr. Jordan and Hy Riverside are likely favorites in the six-horse field.
We will have coverage late this afternoon and this evening on this blog.
