OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Saturday’s 10-race program will be bolstered by a Pick 6 carryover of $24,924 after the multi-race wager went unsolved on Friday’s nine-race card.

Race 7 saw Six Percent [No. 8, $16.20] pounce to victory under Dylan Davis for conditioner Jeremiah Englehart in a state-bred allowance optional claimer.
