HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $1.25 million Friday at Gulfstream Park.
The popular multi-race wager went unsolved for the 12th day of the Championship Meet Wednesday, when multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $1,353.08.
A mandatory payout of the Rainbow 6 jackpot pool is scheduled for Saturday’s program, headlined by the $100,000 Mr. Prospector (G3), in which multiple graded-stakes winners Firenze Fire, Mind Control and Diamond Oops will clash, and the $100,000 Via Borghese.
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.
Friday’s Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 5-10, including a mile maiden special weight race for 3-year-olds and up in Race 7, in which Gary and Mary West’s Emperor Ofthe Nile, a $400,000 son of Pioneerof the Nile, is scheduled make his debut.
