The mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 pool Sunday at Gulfstream Park yielded $1,804,431.20 payoffs to three bettors holding tickets with all six winners.

Unsolved for 20 consecutive programs following a mandatory payout, the pool stood at $921,255.94 heading into Sunday’s Rainbow 6 wagering. A total of $5,615,409 was bet into the popular multi-race wager Sunday to increase the pool to $6,536,665.

This bettor apparently was one of the three:

The winning combination was no. 5 (Tidal Force $7), no. 11 (Break Out $19.40), no. 9 (Bird Wildcat $24.40), no. 10 Spirit Animal ($22.60), no. 11 (Bring Theband Home $20.20) and no. 7 (Sweet Mimi $52.50) in the six-race sequence that spanned races 6-11.

On mandatory-payout days, the entire Rainbow 6 jackpot pool is paid out to the bettor or bettors with the most winners in the wager’s six-race sequence. The carryover jackpot is usually 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 usually goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winner, and 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool.

The next 20-cent Rainbow 6 will start with Wednesday’s program.
