RECORD CARRYOVER CONTRIBUTES TO $1 MILLION POOL

If you picked the right six horses Wednesday, you were one of 41 ticket holders to collect $18,342.20.
A record Pick Six carryover of $307,049 contributed to a total pool of $1,040,949. The winning numbers in the fourth through ninth races were: 7-1-3-7-9-5.
The Pick Six requires players to correctly pick the winners of six consecutive designated races. The Pick Six had not been hit at Keeneland in the past six days, resulting in the large carryover pool.
As the races unfolded Wednesday, it became apparent that the Pick Six probably would be hit after three favorites and a second choice took the first four races.
Players bet a total of $733,900 into the pool Wednesday. Ten of the 41 winning tickets were sold on-track, according to Keeneland. The rest were at simulcast facilities or online.
The consolation payout for those that picked five of the six winners was $113.80.
