Gulfstream: Friday’s Rainbow 6 Jackpot Pool Guaranteed At $350,000

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $350,000 Friday at Gulfstream Park.

The popular multi-race wager went unsolved for the fifth consecutive racing program Thursday, when multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $400.32.

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.

Friday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 4-9, including a $47,000 optional claiming allowance for Florida-bred 3-year-olds and up in Race 8. Trev is scheduled to seek his sixth straight victory in the six-furlong sprint. The 10-year-old gelding's win streak, during which he has won five races by a combined 27 ¼ lengths, dates back to April 12, 2019. The son of Exclusive Quality came off a five-month layoff to win his 2020 debut by two lengths May 20 and will be entering Friday's race off a layoff of nearly four months.

A $60,000 maiden special weight race for 2-year-olds has been carded as Race 6. Gelfenstein Farm's Uncut Gem, a homebred son of Union Rags, is scheduled to make his debut in the mile race that attracted a field of 10.

The Rainbow 6 sequence will conclude with a $20,000 maiden claiming race for 3-year-olds and up in Race 9, scheduled for a mile on turf. Race 9 will also be included as the second leg in Friday's Stronach 5 sequence. Race 7 at Laurel Park will kick off the Stronach 5 action, followed by Gulfstream's Race 9, Races 8 and 9 at Laurel Park and Race 3 at Golden Gate Fields. The Stronach 5, a $1 base wager with a low 12-percent takeout, will have a guaranteed pool of $100,000.
