Gulfstream Park: Wednesday’s Rainbow 6 Jackpot Has $500,000 Guarantee

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 gross jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $500,000 for Wednesday's nine-race program at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.

First race post time is 12:30 p.m. ET.

Multiple tickets with all six winners were sold Sunday, each worth $3,806.06. The popular multi-race wager has gone unsolved for eight consecutive racing days since a $159,442.38 payout Jan. 13.

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.

Wednesday's Rainbow 6 spans Races 4-9.

Who's Hot: Jockey Junior Alvarado visited the circle twice Sunday, with Six Feet Apart ($3.40) in Race 1 and Lucago ($5) in Race 8. Jockey Paco Lopez also doubled aboard Yeguita Queen ($12.20) in Race 3 and Phantom Vision ($13.40) in Race 9. Trainer David Fawkes saddled two winners, Riveting Spirit ($10) in Race 5 and Doctor Ron ($10) in Race 10.

Notes: Starting Wednesday, jockey Jose Ortiz will begin riding at the Championship Meet. Irad Ortiz Jr.'s younger brother is named in four races Wednesday and five Thursday, and is expected to be aboard Sacred Life in the $1 million Pegasus World Cup Turf (G1) and Regal Glory in the $500,000 Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf (G3) Jan. 29. Jose Ortiz had 39 wins and nearly $1.8 million in purse earnings during the 2019-2020 Championship Meet, and 50 wins and more than $2.5 million in purses earned last winter.

Sunday's nine-race card at Aqueduct Racetrack will be bolstered by a carryover of $44,856 after Saturday's Pick 6 went unsolved.

The $1 Pick 6 returned $2,990 to those who selected 5-of-6 horse correctly in the multi-race wager.

Jaqueline Davis then piloted Betty's Smile [No. 2, $56.50] to a five-length claiming victory in Race 5 for trainer Karl Grusmark before McCarthy earned his third win of the day with South Sea [No. 1, $6.50] in Race 6 for trainer Michael Miceli.

Trainer Todd Pletcher sent out First Constitution [No. 2, $7.90] to earn his first American stakes victory in Race 7, the nine-furlong Jazil, with Jose Lezcano aboard. The 6 1/2-furlong Franklin Square followed in Race 8 with Trevor McCarthy scoring his fourth win of the day aboard Sterling Silver [No. 2, $15,40], who captured her first stakes win for trainer Tom Albertrani.

With the carryover already confirmed, Oliver's Fortune [No. 8, $11.80] broke his maiden under Eric Cancel for trainer Ralph D'Alessandro in Race 9, a $25,000 maiden claimer, to close out the card.

Sunday's Pick 6 kicks off in Race 4 at 1:48 p.m. Eastern and includes the featured $100,000 Busanda for sophomore fillies with 10-4-2-1 Kentucky Oaks qualifying points awarded to the top-four finishers. First post on the nine-race card is 12:20 p.m.
