The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool is expected to grow to an estimated $550,000 when racing resumes Thursday at Gulfstream Park.
The Rainbow 6 will begin with Race 4 Thursday, a $25,000 maiden claiming event at a mile and 70 yards on Tapeta for 3-year-olds and up. First Shot Fired, trained by Sandino Herandez, drops a bit in class and adds blinkers after finishing fifth last time out. The sequence concludes with Race 9, a $50,000 starter optional for 3-year-old fillies at 5 ½ furlongs on the Tapeta. Great Venezuela is expected to be a heavy favorite coming off an 11-length victory in April in her 3-year-old debut.
The Rainbow 6 jackpot pool is 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 goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners, while 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool.
First race post Thursday is 12:55 p.m.
