Two Gulfstream Carryovers Thursday; 12:10 PM Post

 

Gulfstream Park has a 9-race card Thursday. First post is 12:10 PM.

No stakes races are on the card. The 4th through 9th races are the Rainbow 6 races, starting at approximately 1:40 PM. That carryover stands at $435,618 as we enter the 12th day of the carryover on this wager since the mandatory payout on January 29th. Gulfstream is setting a $600,000 guaranteed gross pool Thursday if the jackpot is hit.

In Wednesday's racing, 42 winners collected $1,733.16 each in the Rainbow 6, on a betting pool of $132,362. The wager paid on 5 of 6 as no bettor had all 6 winners correct. 6-5-8-2-6-6 were the program numbers.

Fifty-two runners entered the gates for the Rainbow. The long-odds winner was 18:1 in race #9, when Free to Roam came alive winning by a neck.  The favorite Run for Cover (3:1) finished 7th. National Unity in the 4th race won also with 11.7:1 odds.

The late Pick 5 paid a huge $14,621, as that wager did not include race 4 cited above. Seventeen bettors got that right.

The Super High 5 wager also has a carryover of $2,284 Thursday, most likely in race 1. The $1 wager available every race that gates 7 or more starters. That wager has an 18% take-out.

Total all-sources track handle was $5.88 million Wednesday, while the purse size was $350,000.

Gulfstream's Wednesday; $403,000 Rainbow 6 Carryover

 

Gulfstream Park has a 9-race card Wednesday, Feb. 15th

First post is at 12:10 PM. Last Post is 4:10 PM.
Gulfstream races Wednesday through Sunday at the Hallandale Beach, Fla. track.

No stakes races are on the Wednesday card. The 4th through 9th races are the Rainbow 6 races, starting at approximately 1:38 PM. There's a $550,000 gross pool guaranteed for the Rainbow 6 if just one winner exists. The carryover without the guarantee is $403,863.

On the last live racing day, Sunday, Feb. 12, 7 winners of the Rainbow 6 collected $20,935.62 each. Two favorites won in the last 6 races, and the betting favorite finished no worse than 3rd in the 6 races. That fact, along with the  four "off-turf" races led to the large payout. But, the handicap wrecking-ball on the day was Celestial Gaze (48:1) winning the 6th race, the first leg on the Rainbow 6 wager. King Cab was the favorite there finishing third.

The most interesting win on the day was the Super High 5 in race 7 where one winner collected $54,617.
The Rainbow 6 winning program numbers were: 4-7-11-5/7-1-2/8.

Total all-sources track handle was $10.86 million Sunday, along with a $738,000 purse size.

Sunday's 11 Race Gulfstream; Saturday's Results

 Gulfstream Park has a 11-race card planned for Sunday's race day.

The 6th through 11th races are the Rainbow 6 races, starting at approximately 2:37 PM. The carryover there is $341,056 after that wager paid out a smallish $430.18 Saturday to approximately 330 bettors.

On Saturday, the $100,000 Ladie's Turf Sprint Stakes was won by One Identity (3:1) in race 7 by 1/2 length. The $125,000 purse Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint Stakes winner was Yes I Am Free (3.3:1), 1/2 length ahead of Carotari (1.4:1). Interestingly, five horses were scratched from this race, setting the field at just 5 runners. That's a rarity for a stakes race.

Four favorites won on the day, including one in the last 6 races. No winner in the Rainbow 6 races as a betting favorite finished worse than SHOW in the 6 races. That led to meager payouts on the exotic bets.

The late Pick 4 and Pick 5 paid just $67.70 and $205.20 respectively. The best win we saw on the card Saturday was the Early Pick 5 that paid $41,835. Race 1 winner Adorian was a 42:1 shot in the $32,000 maiden claiming race on the turf. We estimate about 13 winners on that wager.

Total all-sources track handle was a whopping $15.02 million Saturday. Total purse on the day was $734,000.

Thanks for reading.
