Friday’s card at Belmont at the Big A will be bolstered by a Pick 6 carryover of $20,079 after the multi-race wager went unsolved on Thursday’s nine-race card.
The $1 Pick 6 returned $142.50 to bettors who selected 5-of-6 winners correctly.
Thursday’s sequence kicked off in Race 4, a seven-furlong claiming sprint for fillies and mares won by 3-5 favorite Jolly Miss Jill [No. 6, $3.20*] with Kendrick Carmouche up for trainer Michelle Giangiulio.
Autumn Glory [No. 10, $9.10] prevailed off the layoff in Race 5, a six-furlong outer turf sprint for New York-bred fillies and mares, under a strong ride by Dylan Davis for trainer Christophe Clement.
Carmouche guided the Tom Albertrani-trained Quokka [No. 2, $44.80] to an upset score in Race 6, a 1 1/16-mile inner turf maiden for juveniles, one race before Manny Franco piloted Mursal [No. 5, $5.70*] to victory as the favorite for trainer Rick Dutrow, Jr. in a seven-furlong starter allowance for fillies and mares.
Dutrow, Jr. doubled up in Race 8 with the Jose Ortiz-piloted Timbuktu [No. 11, $12.40], who out finished favored One Headlight to score in a nine-furlong outer turf allowance for state-breds 3-years-old and up.
With only two horses covered in the Race 9 finale, a 6 1/2-furlong maiden claimer for state-bred fillies and mares, Franco guided Two Redheads [No. 12, $12.60] to a decisive victory for trainer Mertkan Kantarmaci.
Friday's sequence will kick off in Race 4 at 2:12 p.m. and includes the $135,000 Chelsey Flower in Race 6, the $150,000 Athenia in Race 7 and the Grade 3, $200,000 Bold Ruler in Race 8. First post on the nine-race card is 12:35 p.m. Eastern.

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.
