After 19 Days, Gulfstream’s Rainbow 6 Jackpot Grows To $828,291

The 20-cent Rainbow 6 went unsolved for the 19th consecutive program Monday, growing the jackpot carryover to $828,290.56 for Wednesday’s card.

Multiple tickets will all six winners were each worth $29,895.86.

Two horses in the 11th and final race in the Rainbow 6 sequence were eligible to crack a $1,097,253.38 jackpot: No. 5 Rahy Moments and No. 10 Tequila N Tacos. Rahy Moments, sent to post at 70-1, led into the stretch before finishing third.

The carryover jackpot 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.

The carryover jackpot pool going into Monday’s six-race sequence (Races 6-11) was $712,977.91, generating a Rainbow 6 handle of $480,546.

The popular multi-race wager has last solved on Dec. 7, when a lucky ticketholder cashed for a $98,309.32 jackpot payoff.

There will also be a Super Hi-5 carryover of $12,096.67 heading into Wednesday’s card.
