OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Friday’s card at Belmont at the Big A will be bolstered by a Pick 6 carryover of $30,568 after the multi-race wager went unsolved on Thursday’s eight-race program.
The $1 Pick 6 returned $299.50 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 winners correctly.
Thursday’s Pick 6 sequence kicked off in Race 3 with Rodeo Star [No. 1, $17.80] upsetting a one-turn mile claiming race with Luis Rivera, Jr. aboard for trainer Robert Johnston.
Trainer Rick Dutrow, Jr. sent out the next winner with the Irad Ortiz, Jr.-piloted Eric From Miami [No. 1, $4.90*], who captured a 1 1/8-mile claimer, in Race 4. One race later, the New York-bred Spoken Bluntly [No. 9, $11.60] won a six-furlong starter optional claiming race against open company on the outer turf with Kendrick Carmouche in the irons for trainer Bruce Levine, in Race 5.
In Race 6, a seven-furlong starter allowance race, the Steven Schauer-conditioned Street View [No. 2, $5.60*] scored under Manny Franco. In Race 7, a 1 1/16-mile state-bred allowance on the inner turf, Trail of Gold [No. 7, $10] prevailed in a photo finish for Irad Ortiz, Jr. and trainer David Donk.
With 2-of-6 horses covered in the Race 8 finale, the James Ryerson-trained and Hall of Famer Javier Castellano-piloted Quiet Confidence [No. 12, $8.60] came out on top in the six-furlong starter optional claimer on the outer turf.
Friday’s Pick 6 will begin in Race 4 at approximately 2:35 p.m. Eastern. First post for the nine-race card is 1:10 p.m.
