The 20-cent Rainbow 6 pool will be guaranteed at $2.5 million Saturday at Gulfstream Park.

The popular multi-race wager went unsolved for the 30th consecutive racing day of the 2019-2020 Championship Meet Friday, when multiple tickets with all six winners were each worth $13,234.06. .

The Rainbow 6 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.
