Gulfstream Park: Mandatory Payout Generates $3.5 Million Rainbow 6 Pool; $17,081 To The Winners

A mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 pool yielded multiple payoffs of $17,081.40 Saturday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.

The Rainbow 6 had gone unsolved for 11 days in a row since a mandatory payout on the March 27 Curlin Florida Derby (G1) program, leaving a carryover jackpot pool of $570,895 heading into Saturday's mandatory payout. A total of $3,578,504 was wagered Saturday on the popular multi-race wager.

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.

The Rainbow 6 starts anew on Sunday's 10-race card with a guaranteed $100,000 jackpot pool.

There will be a Super Hi-5 carryover of $20,591.80 heading into Sunday's card. The first race, a 1 1/16 mile turf event for maiden fillies and mares, has drawn a field of 10. Belle's Kingdom is 7-5 in the morning line.
