The Rainbow 6 came close to being hit by a single ticket at Pimlico on Friday but ultimately skated through when Final Fear won race 9 at 5-2.
The 20-cent Rainbow 6 paid $10,227 on Friday. The carryover to Saturday will be $261,279.
If the carryover survives the Saturday and Sunday cards, there is a mandatory payout on Monday, the final day of the Pimlico meet.
Coming into the final race, the carryover would have been hit if Smooch My Indy, 35-1; Bella Nora, 60-1; or Mischievous Star, 7-1, would have won.
The Friday winners were Maru's Raven ($5.80), Storm Net ($43), She's Achance Too ($8.60), Lost Story ($10.40), Fleet Gold Digger (12.60), and Final Fear ($7.60).
