Private Terms for 3-Year-Olds Tops Five Stakes Worth $450,000 in Purses
LAUREL, MD – With a little luck of the Irish, one lucky bettor could take down the 20-cent Rainbow 6 after it went unsolved Friday at Laurel Park, swelling the carryover jackpot to $82,248 for Saturday’s stakes-filled 11-race St. Patrick’s Day program highlighted by the $100,000 Private Terms for 3-year-olds.
A total of $24,523 was bet into the popular multi-race wager Friday, adding to a carryover of $74,400.54 from the previous live program Sunday, March 11. Multiple tickets with all six winners were worth $211.92.
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, 60 percent of that day’s pool goes back to those bettors holding tickets with the most winners while 40 percent is carried over to the jackpot pool.
Saturday’s Rainbow 6 spans Races 6-11 and includes five consecutive stakes – the $75,000 Conniver for Maryland-bred/sired filly and mare sprinters (Race 6), $100,000 Harrison E. Johnson for 3-year-olds and up (Race 7), $100,000 Beyond the Wire for 3-year-old fillies (Race 8), $75,000 Not For Love for Maryland-bred/sired 3-year-olds and up (Race 9) and Private Terms (Race 10), where Still Having Fun is the 9-5 program favorite to earn his third consecutive stakes victory.
First race post time is 1:10 p.m.
Notes: Jockey Xavier Perez visited the winner’s circle twice Friday, aboard Squashville Road ($24.80) in the second race and Mo Focused ($3.60) in the eighth-race finale.
