Thursday’s nine-race card at Aqueduct Racetrack will be bolstered by a Pick 6 carryover of $45,509 after the multi-race wager went unsolved on Sunday.
The $1 Pick 6 returned $5,056.50 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 horses correctly.
Sunday’s sequence kicked off in Race 4 with Perceived [No. 4, $6.40] capturing a starter allowance for 3-year-olds and up under apprentice Jose Gomez for trainer Rudy Rodriguez.
Heat’s On Zap [No. 4, $10.60] sped to a frontrunning maiden score in Race 5, besting odds-on favorite Evan Harlan in the six-furlong outer turf sprint for jockey Eric Cancel and trainer George Weaver.
Hall of Famer Javier Castellano guided the Tom Morley-trained Dot’s Dollar [No. 7, $26.80] to an upset score in Race 6, a maiden claiming sprint for 3-year-olds and up before Kendrick Carmouche and trainer Michelle Nevin celebrated victory in Race 7 with Pop the Bubbly in a 1 1/16-mile outer turf allowance for fillies and mares.
Exotic West [No. 1, $23.40], with Castellano up, upset the featured Top Flight Invitational for trainer Gary Sciacca as the longest shot on the board, taking the nine-furlong test for older fillies and mares by less than a length.
With the carryover already confirmed, Kannon Fire [No. 10, $32] provided yet another upset by graduating on debut under Jose Lezcano for trainer Linda Rice.
The Pick 6 kicks off Thursday at the Big A in Race 4 at 2:54 p.m. Eastern. First post is 1:20 p.m.

In the eyes of Hall of Fame owner and breeder John Hettinger, there was no greater importance in the breeding and campaigning of racehorses than ensuring them with a proper and lifelong retirement once their racing careers came to a close.
