Friday’s card at Aqueduct Racetrack will feature a Pick 6 carryover of $25,427 after the multi-race wager went unsolved on Thursday’s eight-race program.
The $1 Pick 6 returned $273 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 winners correctly.
Thursday’s sequence kicked off in Race 3 with Divine Cross [No. 5, $13] taking a 6 1/2-furlong claiming tilt with Isaac Castillo up for trainer David Jacobson. Race 4 saw the Jose Jimenez-trained Just Katherine [No. 5, $3.70*] take a nine-furlong optional claimer with Eric Cancel in the irons, one race before Proven Hope [No. 7, $16.40] secured a one-mile claiming victory under Heman Harkie for trainer Edward Barker in Race 5.
Race 6 featured a training double for Rick Dutrow, Jr., who sent out the Manny Franco-piloted Capone [No. 4, $7.50] to win a seven-furlong claiming tilt. In Race 7, the featured $100,000 Bay Ridge, jockey Jose Lezcano notched his second win on the card as he guided the David Donk-trained Fingal’s Cave [No. 2, $6.20*] to win the one-mile route for state-bred fillies and mares in the filly’s first start off a 14-month layoff.
With five horses uncovered in the final leg, Dylan Davis piloted the Timothy Hills-trained Bornforgreatness [No. 8, $41.40] to a sixth-out graduation in Race 8, a one-mile maiden claimer, to trigger the carryover.
Friday’s Pick 6 begins in Race 3 at 1:46 p.m. Eastern. First post on the eight-race card is 12:50 p.m.
