Gulfstream Park: Mandatory Rainbow 6 Payout On Sunday’s Closing Day

A mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 will be held Sunday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., where the pool for the popular multi-race wager may swell to $5 million or more on the last day of the Spring/Summer Meet.

Gulfstream's hosts and analysts Jason Blewitt and Ron Nicoletti handicap Sunday's Rainbow 6 and offer some interesting plays.

The Rainbow 6 carryover grew to $745,396.50 Saturday after going unsolved for the 15^th consecutive racing day. Tickets with all six winners Saturday were each worth $276.22.

The Rainbow 6 carryover jackpot is usually 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 usually goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners, while 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool. However, on mandatory payout days, the entire pool is paid out to the bettor or bettors with the most winners in the six-race sequence.

Sunday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 7-12.

Race 7, a five-furlong turf dash for $12,500 claimers, drew a well-balanced full field of 12, plus an also-eligible. Race 8, a seven-furlong sprint for 3-year-old fillies, will be contested by eight fillies, including Panarea, the 8-5 morning-line favorite who was claimed out of a 5 ½-length victory against slightly weaker.

A trio of optional claiming allowance races will be contested in Races 9, 10 and 11. Race 9, scheduled at a mile on turf, drew 15 fillies and mares, including four main-track-only entrants. Dynatown, a Mark Casse-trained daughter of Speightstown who is rated as the 9-5 favorite, steps into open company after defeating Florida-breds by 4 ½ lengths last time out.

Royal Squeeze, a winner of more than $600,000, is slightly favored over six rivals in a well-matched Race 10, a six furlong sprint.

Bienville Street, who came within a neck of winning the Monroe Stakes last time out, tops a field of 11, including three main-track-only entrants, in Race 11, a mile turf race for fillies and mares.

The Rainbow 6 sequence will conclude in Race 12, a five-furlong turf sprint for $12,500 fillies and mares claimers that drew 16 entries, including four also-eligibles.

There will also be mandatory payouts Sunday of the Late Pick 5 and last-race Super Hi-5.

There will be a Super Hi-5 carryover of $2,712.43.

Gulfstream’s Rainbow 6 Guaranteed At $1 Million Saturday; Mandatory Payout Sunday

Gulfstream Park wraps up its summer meeting with $1 million in purses up for the grabs Saturday – including the finals of the FTBOA Florida Sire Stakes – and a mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 that could swell to approximately $5 million.

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $1 million for Saturday's FTBOA Florida Sire Stakes program at Gulfstream Park. Multiple winning tickets Friday returned $39,583.64. There will also be a Super Hi-5 carryover of $3,612.13.

Saturday's Rainbow 6 sequence will be co-headlined by the $400,000 FSS In Reality and the $400,000 FSS My Dear Girl for fillies, the final legs of the tradition-rich series for 2-year-olds sired by accredited Florida stallions.

The Rainbow 6 carryover jackpot is usually 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 usually goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners, while 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool. However, on mandatory-payout days, the entire pool is paid out to the bettor or bettors with the most winners in the six-race sequence.

Saturday's Rainbow 6 sequence will be highlighted by six juvenile stakes. The $150,000 FSS Wildcat Heir, a mile stakes for 3-year-olds and up, will kick off the sequence in Race 6, followed by the $75,000 Hollywood Beach, a five-furlong turf sprint; the My Dear Girl, the 1 1/16-mile FSS final for fillies; the $75,000 Armed Forces, a mile turf stakes; and the In Reality, the 1 1/16-mile open-division FSS final. The $75,000 Our Dear Peggy, a mile turf race for fillies, will conclude the sequence in Race 11.

Stonehedge LLC's Breeze On By will seek to become the fifth horse to sweep the open division of the Florida Sire Stakes in the In Reality. The undefeated Ralph Nicks-trained colt, who captured the $100,000 FSS Dr. Fager and the FSS $200,000 Affirmed would join Three Rules (2016), Sir Oscar (2003), Seacliff (1995) and Smile (1984) with a triumph in the 1 1/16-mile In Reality.

Owner/trainer Daniel Pita's Princess Secret, who captured the $200,000 FSS Affirmed, and Stonehedge LLC's Go Jo Jo Go, the $100,000 Desert Vixen winner, will clash again in the My Dear Girl.

Gulfstream: Friday’s Rainbow 6 Guaranteed At $900,000, Mandatory Payout Sunday

A mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 pool is scheduled for Sunday's closing-day program of the Spring/Summer Meet at Gulfstream Park.

The popular multi-race program went unsolved for the 13th consecutive racing day Thursday, when multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $2,967.68. The carryover jackpot pool grew to $636,676.56. However, there will be a jackpot pool guarantee of $900,000 for Friday's Rainbow 6.

The Rainbow 6 carryover jackpot is usually 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 usually goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners, while 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool. However, on mandatory-payout days, the entire pool is paid out to the bettor or bettors with the most winners in the six-race sequence.

Should the Rainbow 6 go unsolved Friday and Saturday, the pool is expected to build into the millions.

Friday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 4-9, including a second-level optional claiming allowance featuring Tatweej's quest for three wins in a row.

Trained by Todd Pletcher, the late-developing 4-year-old, who brought a bid of $2.5 million at the 2017 Keeneland September sale, has scored dominating back-to-back victories at Friday's distance of a mile. The son of Tapit, who finished third in his June 21 debut at Gulfstream, broke his maiden in front-running style by 3 ¾ lengths July 25. The Kentucky-bred colt, who is out of Grade 1-stakes winner Tiz Miz Sue, came right back to score by 2 ½ lengths Aug. 22. Edgard Zayas has the return mount Friday, when Tatweej will take on five rivals, including Brewmeister, who will also be seeking his third straight victory at Gulfstream.

Formerly trained by Chad Brown, Brewmeister finished third June 13 in his first start for Lisa Lewis, before graduating at 6 ½ furlongs July 4 and coming right back to rally from far back to score by a half-length. Ron Allen Jr. has the return call on the 3-year-old gelded son of Point of Entry.

Saturday's Rainbow 6 sequence will be highlighted by six juvenile stakes, including the $400,000 In Reality and the $400,000 My Dear Girl, the final legs of the FTBOA Florida Sire Stakes series for 2-year-olds sired by accredited stallions standing in Florida.

The $150,000 FSS Wildcat Heir, a mile stakes for 3-year-olds and up, will kick off the sequence in Race 6, followed by the $75,000 Hollywood Beach, a five-furlong turf sprint; the My Dear Girl, the 1 1/16-mile final for fillies; the $75,000 Armed Forces, a mile turf stakes; the In Reality, the 1 1/16-mile open-division final; and the $75,000 Our Dear Peggy, a mile turf race for fillies.

Breeze On By Seeking Full Sweep Of Florida Sire Stakes Series In Saturday’s In Reality

Stonehedge LLC's Breeze On By will seek a sweep of the 2020 FTBOA Florida Sire Stakes series Saturday, when the undefeated homebred son of Cajun Breeze takes on eight rivals in Saturday's $400,000 In Reality at Gulfstream Park.

The In Reality, the 1 1/16-mile open-division final for 2-year-olds, and the My Dear Girl, the 1 1/16-mile final for juvenile fillies, will be joined on Saturday's program by the $150,000 FSS Wildcat Heir, a mile race for 3-year-olds and up. All three FSS stakes are for horses sired by accredited Florida Stallions. Supporting stakes will include the $75,000 Armed Forces, a mile turf stakes for 2-year-olds; the $75,000 My Dear Peggy, a mile turf stakes for juvenile fillies; and the $75,000 Hollywood Beach, a five-furlong turf dash for 2-year-olds.

Breeze On By captured the $100,000 FSS Dr. Fager at six furlongs Aug. 1 and the $200,000 FSS Affirmed at seven furlongs Aug. 29. The undefeated Ralph Nicks trainee, who captured his July 12 debut, will seek to become the fifth horse to sweep the FSS open division, joining Three Rules (2016), Sir Oscar (2003), Seacliff (1995) and Smile (1984).

“He's a nice horse. The question will be: Will he handle the two turns? That being said, he's done everything pretty handily so far,” Nicks said. “I love young horses. Stonehedge sends them to us early and let us do our job. It's fun to watch them develop. The ones who have talent you can mold into these kind of horses.”

Trainer Ralph Nicks, who won his fourth consecutive running of the Affirmed when Breeze On By romped to victory by 7 ½ lengths, has saddled the winners of eight Florida Sire Stakes series races since 2016.

“I've been blessed with some nice horses. It would be special to put him on the list with the other ones that have swept the series,” Nicks said.

Breeze On By provided Gil and Marilyn Campbell's Stonehedge Farm with a 15th victory in the tradition-rich series with his Affirmed score.

The gelded son of Cajun Breeze, who made a rather auspicious debut while capturing a July 12 maiden special weight race at Gulfstream by six lengths, set the pace in the six-furlong Dr. Fager before meeting a strong challenge from Gatsby at the top of the stretch. After Gatsby put his nose in front in mid-stretch, Breeze On By fought back gamely to prevail by a length.

In the Affirmed, Breeze On By was followed to the finish line by Nicks stablemates Big Daddy Dave and Seazan, who are also owned by Campbells, who achieved the superfecta with Kathleen O'Connell-trained fourth-place finisher Top Boss.

While Big Daddy Dave, who finished a distant second in the Affirmed, is scheduled to bypass the In Reality and start in the Hollywood Beach, Seazan will return in the FSS final. After a troubled second-place finish in his debut, the son of Khozan graduated in his second start Aug. 1. Seazan closed from ninth and last to finish third in the Affirmed.

“I honestly believe he is a two-turn horse,” Nicks said. “He'll be picking up lot of ground late. He's going to be even better the middle of next year than he is right now.”

Emisael Jaramillo has the return call aboard Breeze On By, while Samy Camacho is slated to ride Seazan.

Arindel's Gatsby will seek to rebound from a disappointing fifth-place finish in the Affirmed after giving Breeze On By a scare in the Dr. Fager. The homebred son of Brethren broke a step slow from his No. 1 post position before setting a pressured pace and faltering in the stretch.

An impressive winner of his April 12 debut, he rebounded from an off-the-board finish in the June 27 Bashford Manor (G3) at Churchill Downs with his gusty second-place finish in the Dr. Fager. The homebred son of Brethren pulled off an upset victory over heavily favored Golden Pal in his April 12 debut at 4 ½ furlongs at Gulfstream, chasing the Wesley Ward-trained odds-on favorite into the stretch before edging clear by three-quarters of a length. Golden Pal has gone on to impress on turf, finishing second in the Norfolk (G2) at Royal Ascot and winning the Skidmore Stakes at Saratoga handily by 3 ½ lengths.

Arindel and trainer Juan Alvarado will also be represented by Hercules, who debuted impressively at Gulfstream Aug. 29, scoring by 2 ½ lengths despite racing greenly through the stretch.

Cristian Torres has the call on Gatsby, while Hector Berrios has been named to ride Hercules, also a son of Brethren.

Kenneth Fishbein's Boca Boy, who finished third in the Dr. Fager, returns to FSS action Saturday after bypassing the Affirmed in favor of the Proud Man, an undercard turf stakes in which he finished second. Edgard Zayas will ride the son of Prospective.

Social Equality, Honesto and The Red Man round out the field.
