Santa Anita: Mandatory Payout, $1 Million Jackpot Carryover Should Fuel Big Rainbow 6 Pool On Closing Day

With a mandatory payout component that will be sure to fuel the pari-mutuel fires, Santa Anita officials project Sunday's 20 cent Single Ticket Rainbow Pick Six Jackpot pool could approach $5 million.

With a Jackpot carryover from Saturday of $1,089,836 to get the party started, Sunday's Rainbow Six will begin with race seven and conclude with the day's 12th and final race at the Arcadia, Calif., track.

Field size over the six-race sequence stands at 9.1 runners per race and race seven is the $150,000 Melair Stakes for California-bred or sired fillies and mares at a mile and one sixteenth.

Perhaps the best betting race on the entire program, the Grade III, $100,000 American Stakes, which offers players a field of 10 three year olds and up at one mile on turf, has been carded as Sunday's 10th race, leg four in the Rainbow Six.

First post time Sunday is at 12:30 p.m., with approximate post time for race seven at 3:33 p.m. PT.

In addition to the Melair Stakes and the American Stakes, Santa Anita will also present the track's traditional closing day feature, the Grade III, $100,000 San Juan Capistrano at a mile and three quarters on turf (R6), the $150,000 Melair Stakes (R7) and the $75,000 Siren Lure (R1).

Rainbow 6 Has $300,000 Guarantee Sunday At Gulfstream Park

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $300,000 Sunday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.

The popular multi-race wager went unsolved Saturday for the fourth consecutive racing day since last Saturday's mandatory payout.  Multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $32,442.56 Saturday.

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.

Sunday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 6-11, kicking off with a mile maiden special weight race for 3-year-olds and up, including Shadwell Stable's Tatweej, a 4-year-old son of Tapit trained by Todd Pletcher. Out of the Grade 1 stakes-winning Tiz Miz, the debuting Tatweej was purchased for $2.5 million at the 2017 Keeneland September sale.

Earlier on Sunday's program, Pletcher will be represented by debuting Tamiami in a five-furlong maiden special weight race for 2-year-old Florida-bred fillies. AIA Racing's homebred, who is rated at 5-2 in the morning line, is by Rattlesnake Bridge.

Saturday’s Rainbow 6 Pool At Gulfstream Guaranteed At $250,000

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $250,000 Saturday at Gulfstream Park.

The popular multi-race wager went unsolved Friday for the third consecutive racing day since last Saturday's mandatory payout. Multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $6,659.46 Friday.

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.

Saturday's Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 7-12. A full field of maiden claimers will kick off the sequence in a five-furlong turf dash in Race 7 before stakes-placed Sweetheart Deal will try to improve on her second-place finish in her recent 2020 debut in an optional claiming allowance in Race 8. Todd Pletcher-trained Kokomo, a daughter of Uncle Mo who broke her maiden over the Gulfstream turf in her 2019 finale, will make her second start of the year in Race 9, a mile optional claiming allowance on turf, after finishing third in an off-the-turf optional claiming allowance last month.

Race 10 will feature Florida-breds, including Bob Hess Jr.-trained Silvery Enough, who will seek his third straight victory in the six-furlong optional claiming allowance. The Rainbow 6 sequence will be closed out by a 1 1/16-mile optional claiming allowance on turf in Race 11, in which On a Spree will seek his third-straight victory for trainer Juan Arriagada, and a $30,000 claiming race at six furlongs in Race 12, in which Win With Pride will make his second start for Pletcher since being claimed by Repole Stables.
