Wednesday’s Rainbow 6 Carryover Jackpot Grows to $865,950
Watch Pegasus Hero Arrogate Compete in Dubai Next Saturday
HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – The 20-cent Rainbow 6 went unsolved for the 18th consecutive program at Gulfstream Park Sunday, producing a carryover jackpot of $865,950 for Wednesday’s 10-race program.
Multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $10,323.24.
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, 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.
Rainbow 6 wagering began Sunday with a $765,298 carryover jackpot, generating a handle of $419,449 on the six-race sequence that spanned Races 8-13.
The Rainbow 6 was last solved Feb. 23, when a unique ticket was worth a $324,179.78 jackpot payoff.
