Stiletto Heels Brings Rich Family Tradition

At 0h44, on May 4, 2023 By GULFSTREAM

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 gross jackpot pool will be guaranteed for $400,000 Thursday at Gulfstream Park, where the popular multi-race wager has gone unsolved for 13 racing days following a jackpot hit.

Thursday’s Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 3-8, featuring a 1 3/8-mile optional claiming allowance on turf for 3-year-olds and up. Mike Maker-trained Bemma’s Boy, a multiple graded stakes-placed Grade 2 winner, is rated as the 7-5 morning-line favorite in a field of eight. Bemma’s Boy, who captured the 2020 Pan American (G2), finished third in the Elkhorn (G2) at Keeneland last year and drops from an off-the-board finish in the March 4 Mac Diarmida.

Two-year-old fillies will be featured earlier on Thursday’s program in Race 2. Cherokee brings race experience into the 4 ½-furlong race, in which she will face six first-time starters. Cherokee set a pressured pace in her April 20 debut before getting caught late by She’s All Class.

Jacks or Better Farms Inc.’s Stiletto Heels brings a rich family tradition into her debut. Out of a half-sister to Grade 1 millionaire Jackson Bend, the daughter of Awesome of Course is a full or half-sister to stakes winners Garter and Tie, Shivaree and Twotwentyfive A. Ralph Nicks trains Stiletto Heels.
