$330,087 Double Pick 6 Carryover Players’ Pool Recap (7/29)
The TwinSpires.com Players Pool wagered $50,040 into the Pick 6 on Monday, July 29, at Saratoga, and failed to land a perfect ticket, though it did score 14 consolation payoffs worth $272 each for a total return $3,808.
The pool was correct to lean on Dance To Bristol and Revenue in races 8 and 9, respectively, but made a critical error when leaving off race 7 winner Jade Run from nearly every ticket. It’s frustrating not to connect on a $61k+ payout when our top opinions win, and the consolation never is one.
Thanks for playing on TwinSpires, and we’ll be ready for the next one.
