Blewitt, Nicoletti Share Rainbow 6 Tickets For Tuesday’s Mandatory Payout At Gulfstream

Gulfstream Park's special Tuesday program will feature mandatory payouts, including a 20-cent Rainbow 6 that could build to more than $3 million.

Tuesday's program will have a first race post of noon. The Rainbow 6 will begin with the fourth race, a maiden event for fillies and mares going five furlongs on the turf. Three of the six races in the Rainbow 6 sequence will be contested on the turf.

Gulfstream hosts and analysts Jason Blewitt and Ron Nicoletti have spent some time going over Tuesday's Rainbow 6 and discuss their tickets.

Nicoletti goes three deep in five of the six races. Blewitt has chosen to single Panarea in the eighth race, a claiming event at seven furlongs on the main track. Panarea is 8-5 in the morning line. Leading rider Edgard Zayas has the call for Antonio Sano, who is tied for third in the trainer standings behind Todd Pletcher and Saffie Joseph Jr.

Nicoletti uses Panarea on his ticket, but also uses Trans Mississippi in the eighth race, a 6-1 shot in the morning line trained by Monica McGoey.

Mandatory Rainbow 6 Payout On Special Tuesday Card At Gulfstream Park

Gulfstream Park's special Tuesday program will feature mandatory payouts of the 20-cent Rainbow 6, 50-cent Late Pick 5 and $1 Super Hi 5.

First race post at the Hallandale Beach, Fla., track is noon Eastern. The Rainbow 6 begins with Race 4, a maiden event for fillies and mares going five furlongs on the turf.

There will be three turf races in the sequence, including the seventh race, an allowance optional claiming event at five furlongs for 3-year-olds with a purse of $54,500. The sequence wraps up with another five furlong turf event for claiming fillies and mares.

Multiple tickets with six winners Sunday were each worth $9,004.40.

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.

NOTE: Waterford Stables LLC's Summer in the City, a 3-year-old filly by Summer Front, drove past a game She's Just Quality under jockey Edgard Zayas down the stretch to win Sunday's sixth race, a maiden special weight event over a mile turf course. Making her third start for trainer Todd Pletcher, Summer in the City covered the mile in 1:35.98… Zayas rode three winners Sunday. Along with Summer in the City he won the fourth aboard Gran Old Parr ($4.80) and the 10th on Lovely Luvy ($5.80).

Tonalist’s Shape Adds Blinkers, Zips :45.35 Half-Mile In Prep For Ashland

Slam Dunk Racing, Doug Branham and Legacy Racing Inc.'s Tonalist's Shape breezed a half-mile in 45.35 seconds Sunday at Gulfstream Park in South Florida in preparation for a likely start in the July 11 Ashland Stakes (G1) at Keeneland in Lexington, Ky.

The Saffie Joseph Jr.-trained Kentucky Oaks (G1) hopeful followed up a pair of 'bullet' workouts with a 'breathtaking' four-furlong breeze that ranked second fastest of 58 recorded at the distance Sunday. Tonalist's Shape, who was ridden by assistant trainer Sabine Langvard, wore blinkers for the first time for Sunday's workout.

“She's never been a fast work horse but she's really coming into herself,” Joseph said. “Today was the first time we put blinkers on her because one of the owners said he'd like to try blinkers. She wore blinkers today and I thought today she had a breathtaking work.”

The 3-year-old daughter of Tonalist will likely race with blinkers while prepping for the Sept. 4 Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs in her next start.

“Most likely she'll run in the Ashland. We're going to nominate her for the [July 18] Coaching Club at Saratoga, but it looks she's going to the Ashland,” Joseph said.

Tonalist's Shape is coming off a sharp 3 3/4-length victory in the May 15 Hollywood Wildcat, her first win around two turns, rebounding from sustaining her first career loss in the March 28 Gulfstream Park Oaks (G2). The Kentucky-bred filly had won her first five starts, including victories in the Forward Gal (G3) and the Davona Dale (G2) during the 2019-2020 Championship Meet at Gulfstream.

“The horse that finished third came back – I know she was well beaten – and ran second in the Grade 1 Acorn. [Fourth-place finisher] Up in Smoke came back to win a stake,” Joseph said. “The form for her last race held up well.”

Tonalist's Shape currently ranks seventh in qualifying points for the Kentucky Oaks.

The Joseph-trained Ny Traffic, who ranks eighth in qualifying points for the Kentucky Derby (G1 at Churchill, is scheduled to breeze at Gulfstream Monday after missing a work last week.

“Last week for a day or two he wasn't quite acting right, like he was fighting off some kind of bug,” Joseph said. “He seems like he's over it and he's galloped the last few days. He's going to work tomorrow.”

Ny Traffic finished a length behind Maxfield while second in the May 23 Matt Wynn (G3) at Churchill Downs last time out. The 3-year-old son of Cross Traffic previously finished second, 1 ½ lengths behind Welles Bayou. in the Louisiana Derby (G2), and third in the Risen Star (G2) at Fair Grounds. In his first start for Joseph, the New York-bred colt scored a front-running 6 ¾-length romp in a 1 1/16-mile optional claiming allowance at Gulfstream Jan. 11.

The July 11 Blue Grass (G2) at Keeneland had been the target for Ny Traffic's next start.

“Ideally, we were thinking the Blue Grass, but the little delay in schedule makes the Blue Grass unlikely,” Joseph said. “So, he'll probably go in the Haskell or the Peter Pan.”

The Haskell (G1) at Monmouth Park is scheduled for July 18, while the Peter Pan (G3) is slated for July 16 at Saratoga.

Nominations Lists for Three July 4th Stakes Released

The Biancone-trained Ete Indien, who finished third behind Belmont Stakes (G1) winner Tiz the Law in the Curlin Florida Derby (G1), is expected to run in the Haskell Invitational (G1) at Monmouth a week later.

Kathy Ritvo-trained Double Crown is coming off a gutsy half-length victory over graded-stakes winner Green Light Go last time out in the May 16 Roar Stakes at Gulfstream.

Sound Machine, who captured the Glitter Woman during the Championship Meet, finished second in the Feb. 22 Any Limit last time out.

Multiple-stakes winners Lady's Island and Pay Any Price give Averill Racing LLC and Matties Racing LLC a strong 1-2 punch on the nominations list for the Bob Umphrey Turf Sprint. Lady's Island has won eight of her last nine starts, including the May 16 Musical Romance last time out. Pay Any Price, the 10-year-old five-furlong course record holder, won the Umphrey back-to-back in 2017-18.
