HALLANDALE BEACH - The 20-cent Rainbow 6 jackpot pool will be guaranteed at $350,000 Friday at Gulfstream Park. The multi-race wager went unsolved for the fifth consecutive racing program today, and multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $400.32.

    Friday’s Rainbow 6 sequence will span Races 4-9, including a $47,000 optional claiming allowance for Florida-bred 3-year-olds and up in Race 8. Trev is scheduled to seek his sixth straight victory in the six-furlong race. The 10-year-old gelding’s win streak, during which he has won five races by a combined 27 ¼ lengths, dates back to April 12, 2019. The son of Exclusive Quality came off a five-month layoff to win his 2020 debut by two lengths on May 20 and will be entering Friday’s race after another layoff of nearly four months.

    A $60,000 maiden special weight race for 2-year-olds has been carded as Race 6. Gelfenstein Farm’s Uncut Gem, a homebred son of Union Rags, is scheduled to make his debut in the mile race that attracted a field of 10.

   The Rainbow sequence will conclude with a $20,000 maiden claiming race for 3-year-olds and up in Race 9, scheduled for a mile on turf. Race 9 will also be included as the second leg in Friday’s Stronach 5 sequence. Race 7 at Laurel Park will kick off the Stronach 5 action, followed by Gulfstream’s Race 9, Races 8 and 9 at Laurel Park and Race 3 at Golden Gate Fields. The Stronach 5, a $1 base wager with a low 12-percent takeout, will have a guaranteed pool of $100,000. comments powered by Disqus
