Friday's Racing at Gulfstream Park; 2:55 PM First Post

 

Gulfstream plans a 9 race Friday, with a 2:55 PM post time.

No stakes races are on the card. Last post will be near 7:22 PM.

The Rainbow 6 carryover is $13,110. To recap the recent racing, the Rainbow 6 jackpot was paid out last Saturday (8/13) as a mandatory payout. Then Sunday's racing resulted in 9 winners for $3,484.16 each. After the 20% takeout, $13,110 is Friday's carryover. A $50,000 guaranteed gross pool is offered by Gulfstream Friday if a single jackpot winner is found.

The Rainbow 6 sequence / first leg gets underway in Race 4 at about 4:38 PM. Forty-four entrants ran in the Rainbow races.

Race 5 was the long-shot win Sunday at 15:1 when Bourbon Wisdom won by a neck over 3.3:1 One Eyed Jack. The favorite Chucky finished 6th in the eight horse field.

Three post-time race favorites won on the day; two of them in the Rainbow 6 races.

All sources track handle was $5.21 million Sunday.

 

Sunday's Gulfstream Racing; 12:25 PM First Post

 

Gulfstream Park has a 10-race card Sunday. First post is at 12:25 PM.

No stakes races are on the card. The 5th through 10th races are the Rainbow 6 races, starting at approximately 2:26 PM. The carryover there is $0 since the Jackpot was paid out Saturday as a mandatory measure. We posted our story Friday night without knowlege of the Rainbow 6 mandatory payout. We apologize. Gulfstream will guarantee a $50,000 gross pool Sunday if a single winner takes the Rainbow 6 wager. The Super High-5 wager has a $3,144 carryover (see graphic below).

In Saturday's 11 races, 18 bettors were paid $72,766.04 each on the Rainbow 6 win. Just one favorite won on the day in the Benny the Bull Stakes, race 10, when Pudding (9:5)  edged Gatsby by one length. Also, two race time favorites finished LAST in races 7 and 9. That's rarely seen, adding to the reason for the monster Rainbow 6 payout.

 

The late Pick 5 paid $4,918.

Fifty-two horses ran in the last 6 races.
Total all-sources track handle was $7.92 million Saturday, of which $1.24 million was the Rainbow 6 wager.
