What are the Odds Rain Will Washout Pick-6 Carryover at the Big A?

When Aqueduct’s Pick 6 on Wednesday, March 9th started out with a $40 winner (the NY-bred mare Citifiesta), punters could console themselves that perhaps after a long drought they might see a carryover. Seventh-race winner French Transition, another NY-bred, sealed the Pick-6 deal with a strong performance that returned his backers $17.60. The result: a $23,214 carryover for Thursday’s Pick 6. According to the national weather service, there’s a 90% chance of rain at first post time of 1:00, so at the very least bettors will have to handicap for mud/slop. Some may also set odds on whether the weather will force racing officials to scrub another day of racing.
