Gulfstream’s Friday card will feature 9 races, with no stakes races planned. It’s race day 55 in the Championship meet that will end April 3rd.
First post time is 12:30 PM, while last post is 4:42 PM.
The sole carryover is again the Rainbow 6 with $692,467.
The Rainbow 6 sequence starts in race 4 with an estimated post time of 2:02 PM.
Gulfstream will guarantee a gross pool of $1 million to a single winner if the wagering today does not bring it up to that amount.
In Thursday’s racing action, 65 starters ran in 9 races, while 43 horses were gated in the Rainbow 6 races.
The Rainbow 6 paid $3,857.36 to 35 winners. As the recent trend continues, no longshot won; the high odds winner was 5:1 in race 5. One favorite was had in all Friday races in race 4. All three turf races were run on the all-weather track.The Rainbow 6 betting pool was $243,060 Thursday.
Interestingly, the Late Pick 5 attracted $100,000 more in wagering than the Rainbow 6. It paid $1,759. Perhaps bettors are favoring the Pick 5 over the Rainbow 6 now?
