PrintRUNNING UPDATE: The Pick Six is off and running at Gulfstream where the even money favorite, 4-In Perpetuity, comes home strong to take the first leg.
-The run of low priced winners finally comes to an end in the 2nd leg as a 9/1 shot 1-Sincerest scores at 5 furlongs on the turf.
-The third leg, a pretty ugly $25k Maiden Claimer, saw 2-Majestic Toy (4/1) upset 2/1 favorite 10-Double Delicious. The race saw a blanket finish of about five horses at the wire, a sign of the fact that nobody really wanted to win.
-Unlike the past few days, we're seeing a decent amount of non-favorites win during the Pick Six sequence, but I don't know if there's been enough big prices in order to produce a carryover after the fourth leg (8th race) is won by 1-Hoopla at 7/1. I'd be surprised if there aren't quite a few tickets still alive, although a big price in the last couple of legs could make it interesting.
-Right One (FR), making his first start in North America after running in France, closes well under Julien Leparoux on the outside to take the 9th race and 5th leg of the Pick Six. Favorite 5-Army Scout tires in the lane after chasing the runaway speed in the early stages of the race.
At 4/1 Right One is the fourth consecutive winner to pay more than $10.
-Favored 6-Perfect Cherokee takes the nightcap at Gulfstream Park keying off another carryover in the Rainbow Pick Six. Tomorrow's sequence will feature an $828,165 carryover.
6-of-6 today paid 1,672,67 for $0.10.
5-of-5 in the Pick 5 paid $2,677.70 for $0.50.

ORIGINAL POST: The Rainbow Pick Six at Gulfstream went unhit (again) this afternoon, keying a $789,100 carryover into Friday's card. Today's consolation paid $924.90 for five-of-six. As a comparison, the $0.50 Pick Five paid $2,325.55 for five-of-five and $17.40 for four-of-five.
Tomorrow's Rainbow Six will include the following races:
| Race | Post (ET) | Condition | Dist. / Surf. | Field Size |
| 5 | 2:55 | $62.5 OC/Allowance | 8.0 / Dirt | 6 |
| 6 | 3:25 | $35k Claiming | 5.0 / Turf | 9 (+2 MTO) |
| 7 | 3:55 | $35k Maiden Claiming | 5.5 / Dirt | 10 |
| 8 | 4:25 | $30k Claiming | 5.0 / Turf | 11 (+2 MTO) |
| 9 | 4:55 | $62.5 OC/Allowance | 7.5 / Turf | 10 (+1 MTO) |
| 10 | 5:25 | $20k Claiming | 8.5 / Turf | 12 (+4 AE) |
If you like turf races in your multi-race sequence (which I do), this is a Pick Six you can get behind as four of the six legs are on the lawn. Sadly, two of those races are of the springing variety, a distance that kills me year after year. The second of the two turf sprints features a field of 11....that should be fun to handicap.

Could someone explain...
How the rainbow 6 works. They say you get the jackpot if you are the ONLY winning ticket? So what happens if 2 or more people hit? (I won’t be able to play because I’ll be at the Indians home opener tomorrow!, but if it grows again, I might take a swing Saturday)

If multiple people hit it...
Part of the pool is paid to 5-of-6ers while the rest carries over. Total pool only pays with one unique winning ticket.
The unique nature of the Rainbow Six really forces you to try and find longshots.

A typo in my previous comment...
If multiple people hit it, part of the pool is paid to 6 of 6 and 5 of 6, while the rest is carried over.

Matt, What Is The Base Of This Wager?
$0.50?
Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.
Just a dime.
The Pick 5 is $0.50.

RACE 10
Even though the Pletcher horse seems like the clear favorite in this one, I converted some pretty competitive times by others in this race.
I like a couple of different plays in the 10th
Both are non-favs (since I’m trying to find a bit of a price):
The 4-Joann’s Success (5/1) seemed to wake-up when switched to the lawn last time out…I love that kind of form reversal with a surface switch.
The 8-Itouch (6/1) has run very well against open company $20k and now gets a bit of class relief against the N2Ls. This could be a nice hidden class drop.

Threw 8 Bucks At It Today...
and, of course, four of six, so, worth nothing….
An intriguing wager, though, and one that would appeal, I think, to the lotto-type players. I will bet it isn’t hit tomorrow, either. I am sure GS would love a 1 million dollar P6 of any kind on Florida Derby day…..which, by the way….why is that on Sunday? Why is the Blue Grass on Sunday? Tracks are making mistakes with those choices. Major races are Saturday affairs.
Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.
Florida Derby has been on Sunday the last few years...
Like you, I’m not sure why they don’t go on Saturday.

Looks like I was wrong on that...
they just stated on HRTV that this is the first year for the FL. Derby on a Sunday. Could of swore it was on Sun. last year but that wasn’t the case. As to why they made the change, who knows.

I've played the Pick 5 more than the Pick 6
since I’m not great at pulling in big longshots, which is what you really need to do to take down this entire pool. On the other hand, the $0.10 minimum is a nice way to get involved in a Pick 6 without the high cost.
