Double Pick 6 carryover of $39K on Sunday at Belmont at the Big A

Sunday’s card at Belmont at the Big A will be bolstered by a double Pick 6 carryover of $39,250 after the multi-race wager went unsolved for the second consecutive day on Saturday’s 11-race program. 

The $1 Pick 6 returned $2,869 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 winners correctly. 

Saturday’s sequence kicked off in Race 6 as Mommy’s Turn [No. 3, $6*] prevailed in a 1 1/16-mile inner turf maiden for state-breds with Jose Lezcano up for five-time Eclipse Award-winning trainer Chad Brown.

Lezcano doubled up in Race 7, the $150,000 Listed Elusive Quality over the outer turf, as My Boy Prince [No. 10, $17.60] produced a prominent score for Hall of Fame trainer Mark Casse.

Hatch [No. 6, $70.50] provided the biggest upset in the sequence, scoring as the 34-1 longest shot on the board in Race 8. Omar Hernandez Moreno engineered the upset for trainer Eduardo Jones in the six-furlong claiming sprint.

In Race 9, a one-mile allowance optional-claimer over the inner turf, Scarlet Poppy [No. 4, $6.80*], with Adam Beschizza up for trainer Wesley Ward, rallied strongly through the final turn and staved off a late bid by Awesome Czech to secure the win.

The Christophe Clement-trained Deterministic [No. 3, $6.20*] made every pole a winning one under Kendrick Carmouche, posting a course record performance in the featured Grade 2 Fort Marcy, a nine-furlong outer turf test for older horses in Race 10.

With the carryover already confirmed in Race 11, a six-furlong claiming sprint, Prince of Joy [No. 6, $32.40], with Christian Maragh in the irons for trainer Ricardo Legall, turned back the onrushing Honorary Degree to notch a 15-1 upset.

Sunday’s Pick 6 will begin in Race 5 at approximately 2:59 p.m. Eastern and includes a trio of Grade 3, $175,000 events in the Vagrancy [Race 7], Beaugay [Race 8] and Westchester [Race 9]. First post for the 10-race card is 1:10 p.m.
