HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – Sunday’s Rainbow 6 carryover at Gulfstream Park will be $426,956.
First race post for Sunday’s 11-race program will be 1:15 p.m.
There was no single winning ticket on Saturday’s Rainbow 6. Multiple winning tickets returned $426,966.33. There was $174,249 put into the Rainbow 6 Saturday.
There will be a Super Hi 5 carryover $2,967.33.
The Rainbow 6 carryover jackpot is paid out only when there is a single unique ticket sold with all six winners. On days when there is no unique ticket sold, 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.
Sunday’s Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 6-11, highlighted by a 7 ½-furlong optional claiming allowance on turf in Race 9. Durocher, who has captured three straight turf starts for trainer Harry Benson, tops a field of 10 (not including main-track-only entrant Arrecife) Luca Panici has the return mount.
In Race 3, George Weaver-trained Requite is scheduled to seek his four victory in as many starts at Gulfstream Park in the Opening Lead Handicap. The 5-year-old son of Warrior’s Reward, who has been idle since finishing off the board in the Vanderbilt (G1) at Saratoga last July, has won off long layoffs at Gulfstream the past two years. Tyler Gaffalione has the mount.
Keystoneforvictory on Familiar Turf in Home of the Brave
Ken and Sarah Ramsey’s Keystoneforvictory, a winner of his last four starts over the Gulfstream Park turf course, is slated to face ….rivals in Monday’s Home of the Brave Starter Handicap, a 1 ½-mile turf race.
The Mike Maker-trained 4-year-old is 5-for-7 overall on the grass at Gulfstream, over which he won the Forty Niner Stakes last June. The son of Shakespeare, who was claimed for $30,000 out of his career debut at Keeneland in October 2015, captured the Claiming Crown Emerald on opening day of Gulfstream’s 2016-2017 Championship Meet Dec. 3. He followed up with a starter allowance win before venturing to the Caribbean in March to finish third in the Barbados Gold Cup.
Tyler Gaffalione has the mount for Keystoneforvictory’s return to action.
Stirrup Trouble’s Temple Fur, a multiple stakes winner over the Gulfstream turf looms as a serious threat. Trainer Jessica Campitelli named Gerardo Corrales to ride the daughter of Temple City.
Peter Vegso’s Mystic Sky, who has finished no worse than second in her last five starts, enters the Home of the Brave off an optional claiming allowance triumph. Luca Panici has the return mount.
