A pair of stakes including the Grade 3 Suwannee River and a forceout of the Rainbow 6 jackpot with a carryover of $1.5 million to start the day, makes for an exciting Saturday of racing at Gulfstream Park. The skies are cloudy and some light rain has fallen this morning although the main track is fast and turf course firm at the moment. There is also a pretty brisk tailwind blowing down the stretch.
Rymska will scratch today at Tampa Bay Downs to be the odds on favorite in the Suwannee River while Mr. Cub tops the field for the El Prado Stakes which is also the 5th leg of the Rainbow 6. A final pool somewhere betwen $8-10 million is projected.
