The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $700,000 Sunday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.
The popular multi-race wager went unsolved for the 10th consecutive racing day Saturday, when multiple tickets with six winners were each worth $44,120.70. Saturday's Rainbow 6 sequence included the $90.80 winner in the ninth race, Gettinintomischief.
The carryover jackpot 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.
Sunday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 5-10, including a $55,000 handicap for 3-year-olds and up at 1 ½ miles on turf in Race 6. Renaisance Frolic, a winner of seven of 20 starts and nearly $350,000 in earnings, will carry highweight of 124 pounds. The 5-year-old Paynter gelding's trainer, Saffie Joseph Jr., is also scheduled to send out Rijeka, who captured a 1 ½-mile optional claiming allowance on turf two starts back and will carry 120 pounds.
Back-to-back $47,000 optional claiming allowances have been carded for Races 7 and 8. Speedster Go Go Gone is scheduled to make his first start for trainer Georgina Baxter in Race 7, a five-furlong turf sprint. Joe Di Baggio will seek his third straight victory in Race 8, a 5 ½-furlong sprint on the main track. A full field of $12,500 claimers will assemble for a 1 1/8-mile turf event in Race 9. The Rainbow 6 sequence will conclude with a mile race for $10,000 maidens on the main track in Race 10.
