Santa Anita Park will begin offering a 20 cent Rainbow Pick Six wager Friday, Sept. 28, opening day of its 22-day Autumn Meet. The prospect of a life-changing score will be in play immediately, as Santa Anita will guarantee a pair of one-day only Rainbow Pick Six jackpot pools, a $250,000 pool opening day, Sept. 28 and a $1-million jackpot pool Saturday, Sept. 29. In the event there are no single ticket winners, 70% of the pool is paid to those tickets with the highest number of winning horses and 30% is carried over to the jackpot pool, less takeout.
“The Rainbow 6 has proven to be a smash hit at Gulfstream, helping to generate bigger purses and larger fields in the long term,” said Tim Ritvo, COO for The Stronach Group. “The Pick Six has obviously been an incredibly popular wager here in California, dating back four decades. Unfortunately, the two dollar minimum and other factors, have rendered it far less popular over the past few years.”
