Very few early scratches on a 10-race Thursday card that starts at 12:35 ET here at beautiful Gulfstream Park, where bright sunshine and a cool breeze will be with us all day and the high temp will peak at 72. We're fast and firm, as usual.
The Rainbow 6 jackpot, unswept since being dispersed waaaay back on Jan. 28, ticked past the $3.2 million mark yesterday, when scattered 20-cent winners were worth $11k-plus for a perfect ticket. It'll span races 5-10 today (yep, only 10 races today, with last post set for about 5:08 ET). The Rainbow 6 is easily the biggest storyline on a card offering just one allowance (R9) amidst the standard weekday maiden and/or claiming fare. The next stakes comes Saturday with the G2, $200k Inside Information, which got a pretty well-matched field of 7 fillies and mares.
Here are the only early SCR today: R7-(9); R8-(2, 9).
