Watch: Experts handicap Gulfstream Rainbow 6 for mandatory payout

Gulfstream Park’s 20-cent Rainbow 6 will have a mandatory payout Saturday afternoon with a pool that could climb as high as $10 million, according to track officials.

The Rainbow 6 begins with Gulfstream’s seventh race and includes four turf races, one a maiden special weight event going a mile, and the $100,000 El Prado, which attracted a field of 13 4-year-olds and up going 7 ½ furlongs on the turf.

On days when there is no unique ticket, 70 percent of that day’s Rainbow 6 pool goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners, while 30 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool. But on Saturday, the entire pool, including a carryover jackpot, will be paid out to all those holding tickets with the most winners. 

After 23 days without a unique winner, the carryover stands at $1,509,922 entering Saturday.

To help bettors, Gulfstream hosts and analysts Jason Blewitt and Ron Nicoletti along with the Daily Racing Form’s writer and clocker Mike Welsch handicap Saturday’s Rainbow 6.
