Interest High for Monday Racing at Gulfstream
At 0h47, on July 10, 2026 • By Gulfstream Park
Gulfstream Park will mark the first of eight Monday programs during its Royal Palm Meet July 13 by unveiling new wagers with fan-friendly takeouts, the first Monday mandatory payout of its 20-cent Rainbow 6, and food and drink specials throughout the property.
The nine-race program begins at 12:20 p.m. ET with a maiden turf event that drew 11 fillies and mares. Live racing will be conducted Saturday, Sunday and Monday through August 31.
Each Monday program will include a mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 with estimated pools of six figures.
There will also be four new player-friendly wagers, three beginning July 13.
- Players Late Pick 3: A $3 wager with a 15-percent takeout on the last three races.
- Players Late Double: A $5 wager with a 15-percent takeout on the last two races.
- Place Pick 8: Select the winner or second-place finisher in the final eight races of the day. The $1 wager has a 15-percent takeout and there will be a 100-percent carryover of the net pool when there are no winners.
Come Monday, July 20 Gulfstream will offer a fourth new wager in the Summer Sweep Pick 5. The unique, multi-track Pick 5, hosted by Gulfstream and designed exclusively for retail customers, features a player-friendly 15% takeout and 100% of the net carryover if no ticket correctly selects all five winners.
The Summer Sweep Pick 5 will feature Gulfstream races with rotating partner tracks including Woodbine, Fort Erie, Horseshoe Indianapolis, Parx and Emerald Downs.
On July 13, the Players Late Pick 3 will begin with Race 7, an 11-horse claiming event at a mile and 70 yards on Tapeta. The Players Late Double will feature eight 3-year-olds and up going six furlongs on the main track in Race 8, and nine maiden fillies and mares in Race 9 going a mile on the turf. The Place Pick 8 begins with Race 2, a claiming event at a mile on the main track.
