With a three-day run-up, the pool of new money could exceed $3 million on Thursday.

Bettors will have decent-sized fields to consider in Thursday’s pick six races. The pick six covers the third through eighth races on a program that begins at 1 p.m. Pacific. The third through eight races, drawn on Sunday, have fields of 8, 8, 11, 9, 8, and 12.

There are three turf races around two turns, and three races on the main track – two sprints and one around two turns. The final race is for maiden claimers over 5 1/2 furlongs.

Two horses in the pick six races will run as geldings for the first-time – Expo and Fig in the sixth race, and Segway in the seventh race.
