Pick Six Betting in Horse Racing

A near impossible wager to win, especially for the novice, and it demands a very large investment of capital. If you’re right, the winnings could change your life.

A pick 6 is a type of wager offered by horse racing tracks. It requires bettors to select the winners of six consecutive races. Because of the great difficulty in picking six straight winners, plus the number of betting interests involved, payoffs for successful wagers are quite high, sometimes in the millions of dollars.

The Breeders' Cup announced that an all Breeders' Cup Pick 6 wager will be offered on both days of this year's Breeders' Cup World Championships, Nov. 6-7 at Santa Anita Park.

Summer Bird won Jockey Club Gold Cup

Summer Bird added the Jockey Club Gold Cup to victories earlier in the year in the Belmont Stakes and Travers Stakes, becoming just the 10th 3-year-old to capture all three races in the same year. He's the first to do it since Easy Goer in 1989. Others to do it include Temperence Hill, Arts and Letters, Damascus, One Count, Twenty Grand, Man o' War, Sword Dancer and Gallant Man.

Summer Bird's fourth victory in eight starts this year earned $450,000 for owners Kalarikkal and Vilasini Yayerman. Summer Bird will be posted to the November 7 Breeders’ Cup Classic at Santa Anita.

Summer Bird paid $4.50, $2.80 and $2.10. Quality Road paid $3.80 and $3.80. Tizway, third of seven after setting the pace for most of the first mile, paid $6.30 to show.
