$600,000 Guaranteed Jackpot For Wednesday’s Rainbow 6 At Gulfstream Park
The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $600,000 Wednesday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.
The popular multi-race wager went unsolved Sunday for the fifth racing day since a March 6 mandatory payout. Multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $16,386.52 Sunday.
The jackpot pool is only paid out when there is a single unique ticket sold with all six winners. On days when there is no unique ticket, 70 percent of that day's pool goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners, while 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool.
WHO'S HOT: Tyler Gaffalione and Luis Saez each rode three winners Sunday.
Gaffalione scored aboard Comp'd ($10.20) in Race 1, Kantharos Image ($21.80) in Race 5, and Pro Quality ($6) in Race 8. Saez won aboard Work Ethic ($5.80) in Race 1, Iced Latte ($7.20) in Race 6, and Exponential ($6) in Race 10.

Collaborate Has Best Of Morning Breeze As Florida Derby Prep
Three Chimneys Farm and e Five Racing Thoroughbreds' Collaborate breezed four furlongs Sunday morning at Gulfstream Park in preparation for a start in the $750,000 Curlin Florida Derby (G1) presented by Hill n' Dale at Xalapa March 27.
The son of Into Mischief was timed in 47.05 seconds at the Hallandale Beach. Fla., track, the fastest clocking of 51 recorded at the distance, while returning to the worktab for the first time since producing a dazzling maiden victory at Gulfstream Feb. 27. He worked in company with Sound Machine, a 4-year-old stakes-winning filly.
“He showed great progression today. He's always been a good work horse,” trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. said. “He worked with Sound Machine. She was a little keen early on. She was on the outside and was leading and they finished head-and-head and he galloped out stronger than her.”
Collaborate graduated by 12 ½ lengths under wraps on the Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth (G2) undercard after completing a one-turn mile in 1:36.35.
“He has the looks physically; he's big, tall. Few are comparable to him in looks. As big as he is, he's very athletic, very fluid, very efficient mover,” Joseph said. “Watching him work today, you don't even know he's working that quick. He came the last quarter in 22-and-4 and galloped out. You don't think he's going that fast, but when you look at the clock, he is.”
The Kentucky-bred colt, who was purchased for $600,000 at the 2019 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale, had finished a troubled fifth, beaten by just a length by victorious Democracy, in his six-furlong career debut over a sloppy track Feb. 6. Shug McGaughey-trained Bears Watching, who finished third, a neck and a nose ahead of Collaborate, came back to graduate Saturday afternoon at Gulfstream Park by 7 ¾ lengths.
“First time out, losing was a blessing in disguise. It didn't feel good on the day, knowing the talent that he had, but I think it helped us going forward,” Joseph said.
Collaborate will concede racing experience to his rivals in the Florida Derby.
“I think he's a special horse. Obviously, we're asking a lot of him to make his third start in the Florida Derby and have to face a horse like Greatest Honour and a few others that will be more seasoned. I feel like he's a horse who has the ability to overcome seasoning.”

I Want The Winner Online Platform Launched
I Want The Winner, a new digital platform for buying and selling racehorses online, was launched on Monday. The service is completely secure and transparent for both buyers and sellers. Geared toward the high-end of the bloodstock industry, I Want The Winner will offer horses-in-training, breeding stock, the syndication process, covering fees and stallion shares.
The 2017 concept is the brainchild of Christophe German, the founder of Le Centaure, a horse racing insurance brokerage which went on to become Markel France. German's partners in I Want The Winner are Michel Gasselin, Mehdi Mohammed and Dimitri Gallier. The trio were already involved in the setting up of Club Elevage-an online site which trades in the covering fees and shares of trotting stallions. German is also working with Valentin Adam, who has spent nearly three years at Arqana, and the company has representatives in France, Britain, Ireland (Billy Jackson-Stops), Germany (Tina Rau) and Australia (Louis Le Metayer).
“I witnessed the success of Club Elevage in a sphere, namely that of the trotting, where trading volume is far less than that of the world of flat racing,” said German. “I quickly became convinced that the Flat sector would benefit from a well thought out online sales platform, and one sharing the same values as those that govern Markel France, namely transparency, integrity and clarity. The design of such a platform required a lot of thought and, to bring it to fruition, I was able to draw on the expertise of my three established partners whose Club Elevage website is a proven success story. We are now proceeding towards the activation phase. I Want The Winner has already received the support of renowned professionals such as Francois Nicolle and Francis-Henri Graffard who, like us, believe in the project and which have understood why it's of interest. This type of sale is also a logical step from an animal welfare and also from an economic point of view as there is less travel. A number of developments are in the pipeline for the next few weeks, including online bidding for certain lots.”
Offerings already on I Want The Winner include: the broodmare Suama (Fr) (Monsun {Ger}) with her Goliath du Berlais (Fr) filly at foot, nominations to Le Havre (Ire), Almanzor (Fr), King Edward (Fr), Threat (Ire) and Born To Sea (Ire) and stallion shares in Threat and King Edward.
