Pick 6 carryover at Breeder's cup??

[jayfree41]

From everything I read, although the Pick 6 wasn't hit at the Breeder's cup today, it doesn't appear that there is a carryover into tomorrow.

If so: kind of lame. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance. Jay

Maybe it is the same reason TVG was able to carry the non-BC races today...it is their show, not CD. I'm not sure about that though to be honest.

Always a mandatory payout for Bc Pick-6 and no conso for 4 of 6.

Maybe they should consider carrying it over to next year's breeders cup. Collect interest on the money and creat a lot of interest without even knowing who's running.

This is correct cj. The track that hosts the BC is only compensated an amount equal to what they would get on a normal day of wagering, so CD got only what they would have on an average friday and saturday from all that wagering. BC takes the rest and essentially runs the track for those days. Therefore no bets could carry. Think of it as a mini meet.

With today's economy the interest would add up to about $157.62
