Straight Fire 6: Indiana Grand Adds New Jackpot Wager

Indiana Grand is adding a new gimmick to its wagering platform. The Straight Fire 6, a jackpot Pick 6 wager, will be offered, and to help initiate the wager, a unique world record will ignite the bet in Race 2 Monday, July 20.

“We are always looking for ways to promote our racing product and thought it would be fun to kickstart our Straight Fire 6 with a $100 guaranteed pool, which will be the lowest in the world,” laughed Eric Halstrom, vice president and general manager of racing. “With all the serious issues going on right now, we wanted to add some humor into the launch of our Straight Fire 6. We had an employee contest to name the wager and the $100 guaranteed pool gives us the distinction of setting another record – the lowest guaranteed pool of all-time!”

The Straight Fire 6 will join a list of similar wagers across the United States offering a jackpot format. The wager needs one unique ticket to take the “jackpot” or the entire pool. If there are multiple tickets with all six winners, then 50 percent of the pool will be paid out and the remaining 50 percent goes into the carryover. The Straight Fire 6 is offered daily beginning in Race 2 and extending through Race 7.

Live racing continues through Wednesday, Nov. 18 with action held Monday through Thursday beginning at 2:20 p.m. Three more Saturday programs are slated for all-Quarter Horse days Aug. 8, Oct. 23 and Oct. 24.

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.
