$323,024 Payoff In Santa Anita Rainbow 6 Jackpot On New Year’s Eve Card

New Year's Eve at Santa Anita in Arcadia, Calif., finished with a bang, as the track's popular 20 cent Single Ticket Rainbow Pick 6 Jackpot was hit for $323,024 as 14-1 longshot Sir Oliver reported home on top by 2 ¾ lengths under Tyler Baze.

Purchased for 20 cents through the Maryland-based Hunt Valley wagering hub, the winning numbers and payoffs on races four through nine were as follows: R4, (8) $24.80; R5, (5) $31.00; R6, (1) $3.20; R7, (4) $8.20, R8, (3) $10.20 and R9, (10) $30.00.

With a Jackpot carryover from Sunday of $167,262, there was $204,142 in new money wagered Thursday, creating a total Rainbow 6 Jackpot pool of $371,404.

Today's ninth and final race, a $61,000 maiden special weight at 6 ½ furlongs on turf, attracted a field of 11 three year olds and up and Sir Oliver was the only “live” horse in the Jackpot. A first-time starter owned by Endeavor Farm, he provided trainer Mike Puype a double on the day and gave Baze a sweep of the late Daily Double.

Racing resumes with a nine-race card on New Year's Day, Friday, at Santa Anita, with first post time at 12:30 p.m.

Clean Trip Makes All The Difference For Quattroelle In Blue Norther

Irish-bred Quattroelle unleashed an impressive turn of foot the final three sixteenths of a mile and took Thursday's $75,000 Blue Norther Stakes, Santa Anita's final added money event of the year, by three quarters of a length under Tyler Baze. Trained by Jeff Mullins, Quattroelle got a flat mile on turf in 1:35.72.

One of three fillies to exit the Grade 3 Jimmy Durante Stakes at Del Mar Nov. 28, Quattroelle saved ground at the rail into the run to the far turn while about five lengths off the lead. Straightening for home, she angled outside pacesetter Michalska, pinned her ears and held off a stout challenge from favored Javanica to her outside to win in-hand on the wire.

“Her last race, we got kind of got slaughtered a couple of times around the turn, it cost her the race,” said Baze, in reference to Quattroelle's narrow third-place finish in the one mile turf Durante, a race in which Javanica finished second. “She's a nice filly. I don't know how good she is, she is just very nice. She still has a lot of learning. Once I hit the lead, she was pulling herself up all the way down the lane, really just having fun.”

Off at 3-1 in a field of eight sophomore fillies, Quattroelle paid $8.20, $3.60 and $2.60.

Owned by Red Baron's Barn, LLC and Rancho Temescal, LLC, Quattroelle, who broke her maiden going a mile on turf in her U.S. debut on Oct. 3, picked up $46,920 for the win, increasing her earnings to $94,572. Two for three with Mullins, she's now 4-2-0-2.

“She ran great and we weren't surprised,” said Mullins. “She got knocked sideways real bad last time at Del Mar and she should've won. She's a real hard trying filly and she's done everything we've asked her.”

Ridden by Flavien Prat, Javanica, who was a close third while three-deep turning for home, was off as the 9-5 favorite and paid $3.00 and $2.40 while finishing 1 ¼ lengths clear of Carpe Fortuna.

Off at 5-1 with Mario Gutierrez, Carpe Fortuna paid $3.00 to show.

Fractions on the race were 24.06, 48.18, 1:12.37 and 1:24.21.

Stronach 5 Includes Pair Of New Year’s Day Stakes From Gulfstream

Breeze Easy, LLC's Imprimis and DARRS Inc.'s Extravagant Kid, both coming out of the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1), go to post in the $75,000 The Janus, one of two stakes that make up Friday's popular Stronach 5.

The Stronach 5, featuring races from Gulfstream Park, Santa Anita Park and Laurel Park as well as an industry-low 12-percent takeout, will begin at approximately 3:55 ET.

All-Star Ticket: https://www.xbtv.com/video/stronach-5/stronach-5-all-star-ticket-for-january-1st-2021/

The sequence begins with Laurel's eighth race, a starter optional claimer at 5 ½ furlongs for 4-year-olds and up that drew a field of 10 including a tepid favorite in Kieron Magee's Belle Tapisserie, claimed Nov. 27 for $25,000.

The action heads to Gulfstream for the second leg of the Stronach 5, The Janus at five furlongs on the turf. Imprimis, trained by Joe Orseno, will be making his first start since being steadied hard as the third betting choice in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1) Nov. 7 at Keeneland. The 7-year-old gelding has earned $759.948 with victories in the Shakertown (G2) and Runhappy Turf Sprint (G3).

Extravagant Kid also comes out of the Breeders' Cup Turf, having finished fourth beaten just a length. Trained by Brendan Walsh, Extravagant Kid has earned nearly $1 million and is multiple graded-stakes placed. Prior to the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint Extravagant Kid finished second in the Woodford (G2) at Keeneland.

The action swings back to Laurel for the third leg, Laurel's Race 9, a maiden claimer for fillies and mares at 1 1/16 mile. Rye Street, claimed last time out by Anthony Farrier, is the 5-2 choice. Leading trainer Claudio Gonzalez will saddle the 3-1 second choice in Lady Fox.

Santa Anita's third race, a competitive maiden special weight event at six furlongs on the turf, will serve as the fourth leg in the sequence. Translate, a 4-year-old daughter of Tonalist who's the 9-5 favorite, has finished second in all three of her previous starts, all at Belmont Park. Shezaghost, a 4-year-old daughter by Ghostzapper, makes her debut for trainer Mike Puype.

The Stronach 5 wraps up at Gulfstream with the $75,000 Cash Run for 3-year-old fillies at a mile. Shea D Summer is undefeated in two starts, including the Juvenile Fillies Sprint at Gulfstream West in November. Lucifers Lair, a daughter of Quality Road, goes to post for leading trainer Todd Pletcher. The filly broke her maiden in her debut at Saratoga before finishing a well-beaten fifth in the Adirondack (G2). Arindel's Quinoa Tifah won the Our Dear Peggy over a sloppy Gulfstream track in September before finishing fourth in the Juveniles Fillies Turf.
