Thursday’s Rainbow 6 Jackpot Pool Guaranteed at $4 Million
Mandatory Payout of the Rainbow 6 Scheduled for Sunday
Pegasus Post-Position Draw Wednesday
HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool for Thursday’s program at Gulfstream Park will be guaranteed at $4 million.
The popular multi-race wager went unsolved for the 38th consecutive racing day of the 2019-2020 Championship Meet at Gulfstream Monday, when multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $1,421.20.
The Rainbow 6 jackpot 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.
A mandatory payout of the Rainbow 6 pool is scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 26, when the entire pool will be shared by those ticketholders with the most winners Should the Rainbow 6 continue to go unsolved through Saturday’s Pegasus World Cup Day card, the pool is expected to exceed $10 million.
Pegasus Post-Position Draw Wednesday
Post positions will be drawn and odds assigned for the $3 million Pegasus World Cup (G1) and $1 million Pegasus World Cup Turf (G1) Wednesday at 11:30 a.m. at Frankey’s Sports Bar at The Village at Gulfstream Park.
The two Pegasus World Cup races, presented by Runhappy, along with seven other stakes races will be contested Saturday, Jan. 25 at Gulfstream Park.
The draw for both races will be shown live on GulfstreamPark.com and XBTV.com.
