Gulfstream’s Rainbow 6 Jackpot Pool Guaranteed at $700,000 Sunday

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 Jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $700,000 Sunday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.

Sunday's sequence begins with the fifth race, a claiming event for 3-year-olds and up scheduled at 1 1/16 miles on the turf. The sixth race, a six-furlong event for non-winners of one for 2-year-olds, drew a field of six including debut winner Hey Porter, Laki Lio, a winner of his first race before finishing seventh in the FTBOA Dr. Fager division of the Sire Stakes, and Roman Poet, third at Monmouth last time out in the Tyro.

The third leg of the sequence is the $75,000 Bear's Den scheduled at 7 ½ furlongs on the turf. Fulmini, a winner of two of his last three, is the 2-1 morning-line favorite.

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.

Gulfstream Park's 20-cent Rainbow 6 will have a guaranteed pool of $700,000 when racing resumes Saturday with a first race post of 12:20 p.m. ET.

Saturday's Rainbow 6 kicks off with Race 7, a claiming event for fillies and mares at a mile on the turf. The sequence includes two other turf races and an allowance optional claimer for 2-year-old fillies at a mile on the main track. She's So Beautiful, a winner of her last two races trained by Carlos David, is 7-5 in the morning line.

Earlier in the afternoon, a field of eight 3-year-old fillies go to post in the $75,000 Miss Gracie at 7 ½ furlongs on the turf. The 5-2 favorite is Starship Nterprise, second in the Monroe and a winner of the Martha Washington.

Sunday's feature at Gulfstream will be the $75,000 Bear's Den for 3-year-olds at 7 ½ furlongs on the turf. Fulmini, a winner of two of his last three, is 2-1 on the morning line. Officiating, second by a nose over the winter at Tampa Bay Downs in the Sophomore Turf, is 5-2. Carry Back winner Papetu is even-money but entered only for the main track.

NOTES: Glen Hill Farm's Muted, a 2-year-old daughter of Into Mischief out of the graded stakes-placed mare Praia, won her debut Friday by 7 ¼ lengths for trainer Thomas Proctor, covering six furlongs in 1:11.02 after taking the lead around the turn. Muted sold for $450,000 as a yearling. … Rough Entry, a 4-year-old colt claimed in April by trainer Rohan Crichton for $20,000 won Friday's featured $53,000 optional claimer. It was the colt's fifth consecutive victory and fourth for Crichton. Rough Entry was a half-length better than a game Isolate, third in last year's Nashua (G3). Trophy Chaser, a Grade 3 winner returning from a 16-month layoff, was third, three-quarters of a length behind Isolate.

Simulcast Impasse Means No Kentucky Downs Wagering For NYRA And NYRA Bets Customers

Kentucky Downs has reached an agreement with all the major simulcast outlets and account-wagering platforms to take bets on the six-date all-turf meet except the New York Racing Association and its affiliated online-arm NYRA Bets as well as some of the tracks and outlets they represent in the simulcasting market.

Kentucky Downs, located in Franklin, Ky., opens this Sunday and continues through Labor Day Monday and Sept. 8, 9, 11 and 12.

The lack of a signed contract means that horseplayers at NYRA's three tracks as well as NYRA Bets account-holders will not be able to place wagers on Kentucky Downs. (New York state's regional OTB networks are not impacted.)

Kentucky Downs is the host track for inter-track and whole-card wagering in Kentucky during its live race meet. As a result of the impasse, horseplayers betting on-site at any of the Kentucky tracks likewise will not be able to wager on the last two days of Saratoga's meet, Sunday and Monday. Online betting platforms such as TVG, TwinSpires and Xpressbet are not affected.

“We are disappointed and saddened by NYRA's decision but also understand and accept it,” said Ted Nicholson, Kentucky Downs' Vice President for Racing. “We want to let horseplayers know in advance so they aren't caught off-guard. We are confident that New York horseplayers will find alternative ways to wager on Kentucky Downs and look forward to resolving this issue at some point with NYRA.”
