Saturday's nine-race card at Aqueduct Racetrack in Ozone Park, N.Y., will be bolstered by a Pick 6 carryover of $39,862 after the multi-race wager went unsolved on Friday.
The $1 Pick 6 returned $603.50 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 horses correctly.
Friday's sequence kicked on in Race 3 with O Shea Can U See [No. 5, $9.90] prevailing in a one-turn mile claiming event for 3-year-olds and up under Samuel Camacho, Jr. for owner-trainer Daniel Laxmeter.
Jockey Manny Franco was nearly unseated from Patient Capital [No. 5, $5.20] at the start of Race 5 but recovered in remarkable fashion to graduate in style in the six-furlong sprint for 3-year-olds and up. Chad Brown trained the winner for Klaravich Stables.
Sweet Surprise [No. 4, $14.80], with Dylan Davis up for Bruce Brown, provided a mild upset in Race 5 traveling a one-turn mile for sophomore fillies, before the favored Dr Ardito [No. 5, $3.50] scored easily in Race 6, a one-mile optional-claimer for 3-year-olds and up.
Brunate [No. 8, $6.40], with Jose Gomez up for H. James Bond, wore down Tamburro's Sox to capture Race 7, a six-furlong claiming sprint for 3-year-olds and up.
With only four horses uncovered in Race 8 finale, Masked Marauder [No. 7, $43.20] staved off the challenge of even-money favorite Key Point to secure the carryover as the longest price in the sequence. Gomez guided the winner for Rudy Rodriguez in the 6 1/2-furlong allowance sprint for New York-breds 3-years-old and up.
The Pick 6 kicks off Saturday at the Big A in Race 4 at 2:52 p.m. Eastern and will include the $150,000 Excelsior in Race 8. First post is 1:20 p.m.
