I can't say about all P6 winners, but when there have been really big payoffs that made the newspapers (and, here I'm thinking the past 4 or 5 years) roughly half of those were not purchased at the host track.
I'll see if our buddy, Mike, can get some more definitive info. I know the CHRB looks at those stats from time to time. (A couple months ago, in the minutes from their monthly meeting, they were inquiring about the bet-size of P6 winning tickets. Apparently in response to complaints that the P6 and big carryover winners were dominated by "big" bettors.)
