Mandatory Rainbow 6 Returns $71,527

HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – There were 44 winning tickets in Gulfstream Park’s mandatory payout of the 20-cent Rainbow 6 Saturday with each returning $71,527.20.

The mandatory payout was one of the highlights on Pegasus World Cup Day which featured Skippylongstocking winning the $3 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational (G1) and Test Score winning the $1 million Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational (G1).

In the Rainbow 6, the jackpot pool 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.

When there is a mandatory payout, the entire pool is disbursed to the bettor or bettors with the most winners in the six-race sequence.
