The 20-cent Rainbow 6 gross jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $300,000 for Saturday's program at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., where the popular multi-race wager went unsolved on the third racing day following Sunday's mandatory payout.
Saturday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 7-12, including the $100,000 Hurricane Bertie (G3) in Race 7 and the $100,000 Captiva Island in Race 10.
Bill Mott-trained Obligatory, who placed second in the Acorn (G1) at Belmont and won the Eight Belles (G2) at Churchill Downs last year, is scheduled to make her 2022 debut in the 6 ½-furlong Hurricane Bertie as the 8-5 morning-line favorite. Multiple graded-stakes winner Four Graces, who is trained by Ian Wilkes, enters the Hurricane Bertie a close-up second-place finish in the Jan. 29 Inside Information (G2).
Brian Lynch-trained Tobys Heart is the 2-1 morning-line favorite for the Captiva Island, a five-furlong turf stakes for fillies and mares. The daughter of Jack Milton, who is graded stakes-placed around two turns, has won two sprint stakes, the 6 ½-furlong Music City at Kentucky Downs and the 5 ½-furlong Bolton Landing at Saratoga. Eddie Plesa Jr.-trained Miss Auramet enters the Captiva Island off a front-running score in the Lady's Turf Sprint.
The Rainbow 6 jackpot is 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: Leading rider Luis Saez continued his uber-successful championship meet Friday, scoring aboard Grainer County ($7.60) in Race 2 and Blustery ($5) in Race 3.
