The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $1.8 million Sunday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla.
The popular multi-race wager went unsolved for the 13th consecutive racing day Saturday, when multiple ticket with all six winners were each worth $140,821.14. The huge payoff came when Sunsation ($112.20) won the 10th race and Atakan ($105.60) won the 11th race and final leg of the sequence.
The 11th race payoff also results in a Super Hi 5 carryover Sunday of $24,651.56.
The Rainbow 6 carryover 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.
Sunday’s Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 7-11, including the featured six-furlong optional claiming allowance carded as Race 8. Multiple stakes-winners Royal Squeeze and First Deal are prominent contenders in the field of six older horses.
