Player Scores $254,441 Winner In Del Mar Single Ticket Pick 6 Jackpot

A lone ticket holder was – in racetrack parlance – “kissed in” to a Pick Six score of $254,441 Sunday afternoon at Del Mar when Lord Admiral, who had finished second in the 9th and final race, was moved up to first after Bold Papa was disqualified from an apparent win for interference with several other runners in the deep stretch.

Lord Admiral, ridden by Brice Blanc, returned $18.60 for the victory in the nightcap and triggered a 2-4-3-6-7-11 Pick Six payoff that consisted of $112,283 in Sunday carryover money and $142,158 in Jackpot carryover monies from the previous five racing day.

The single ticket was sold for $288.

The Pick Six winners were: 4th Race #2 Streak of Luck ($35.20); 5th Race #4 Black Tie ‘n Tails ($3.40); 6th Race #3 Marley’s Freedom ($5.40); 7th Race #6 Dominating Woman ($5.80); 8th Race #7 Edwards Going Left ($6.60), and #11 Lord Admiral.

There were 79 tickets with five out of six winners and they were each paid $304.40.

Happy Wagering and thank you for choosing  IdaBet!

Charmed Life Wins Sunday Morning 40G Open Trot- Yonkers

Charmed Life Wins Sunday Morning 40G Open Trot- Yonkers

Nov 20, 2017

IdasBet Players: YONKERS, NY, Sunday, November 19, 2017—Odds-on Charmed Life (Yannick Gingras, $3.50) slapped the boys silly again Sunday afternoon (Nov. 19th), winning Yonkers Raceway’s windy $40,000 Open Trot.

With ‘only’ a seven-horse field, the weekly trotting feature went at the flat mile, the late-morning opener

First-up a week ago, Charmed Life was in play early here. From post position No. 5, she found front well before a :27.2 opening quarter-mile. Lookslikeachpndale (Dan Dube), who left directly outside of the lass, was hard-used just to cram into the pocket.

Once Charmed Life made the lead, there wasn’t a whole lot of suspense. She finished off her pre-noon rounds (:58.2, 1:27.3, 1:56.3), with only minimal outside grief from Home’n Dry (Jason Bartlett).  That one moved from fifth and challenged to the final turn before backing away.

The margin was a couple of lengths in and out of the final turn and three-quarters of a length at the wire.

‘Chpndale’ easily saved second, while DW’s NY Yank (George Brennan) Buen Camino (Brian Sears) and Tight Lines (Jeff Gregory) were relegated to the minors.

For Charmed Life, a 7-year-old millionairess daughter of Majestic Son co-owned (as Allard Racing) by (trainer) Rene Allard, Yves Sarazin and VIP Internet Stable, it was her eighth win in 23 seasonal starts. The exacta paid $17, with the triple returning $81.50.

 The scheduled ‘New York, New York Double’ was cancelled after Aqueduct scrapped its card.

 Sunday matinees, along with the weather-permitting ‘New York, New York Double,’ return Nov. 26th (post time TBA).

Good luck and thank you for...

Yonkers Peek At Monday’s Program

Team IdaBet is pleased to offer our players a peek at Yonker’s card for Monday, November 20, 2017 by Frank Drucker, Publicity Director.

Listed below are some insights for IdaBet players  into  Monday’s racing program for your wagering consideration:

 

4TH RACE – (3) LINDYTHEFOURTEENTH has one job here…play ‘catch me if you can.’ If successfully pointed forward, should be more than brave enough.

5TH RACE – (5) ST. HELENA held reasonably well first-up in last, winding up third. Her resume appears a bit more complete than these, so gazed accordingly.

7TH RACE – (1) STEUBEN JOBEE had horror upstate trip for start off barn change. Wins draws here shortening route, though race has a fair amount of talent.  

8TH RACE – (3) BRALEY HANOVER has been four-eyeballed since hitting town, showing signs until last. Was apparently unrateable and spatulaed off track.

9TH RACE – (7) FUTURE HEADLINES was ‘peeked’ and apparently good thing in local debut, fooling no one despite month off.  Taken to handle class hike.  

10TH RACE – (3) NEXT SUCCESS has not exactly distinguished himself in last few, but draws well in an event that came up soft for class. Appears functional.
