Mandatory payout set for Empire 6 for Sunday, March 8

by NYRA Press Office



Sunday's nine-race card at Aqueduct Racetrack will be highlighted by a mandatory payout of the Empire 6, which boasts a jackpot of $66,941.

In January, the New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) announced a series of bi-weekly mandatory payouts for the Empire 6 wager, continuing every other Sunday, which will also include March 22, April 5, and April 19.

The Empire 6 requires the bettor to select the first-place finisher of the final six races of the card. On non-mandatory payout days, if one unique ticket exists, then 100% of the net pool, plus the jackpot carryover if applicable, will be paid to the winner. If there is no unique wager selecting the first-place finisher in all six races, then 75% of the day's net pool will be distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of races. The remainder will be added into the jackpot and carried to the next day's Empire 6.

Sunday's Empire 6 wager will start in Race 4 with an approximate post time of 2:56 p.m. Eastern and will include three maiden claiming races in the sequence as well as an open-company first level allowance race for fillies and mares 4-years-old and upward in Race 8. First post on Sunday's card is 1:30 p.m. Eastern.
