String of upsets cause $210,165 pick six carryover into Sunday card

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – The upset victories by Immersive ($27.40) in the Grade 1 Spinaway and Idea Generation ($64.50) in the Grade 2 Flower Bowl resulted in there being a pick six carryover of $210,165 into Sunday’s 13-race card at Saratoga.

The Sunday pick six will begin in race 8 (3:59 p.m.) and include three races scheduled for the turf, including the $150,000 Bernard Baruch Stakes. The Grade 1, $1 million Jockey Club Gold Cup, scheduled for 1 1/4 miles on dirt and featuring Grade 1 Whitney winner Arthur’s Ride, is also in the sequence.

Rains forced Saturday’s 13th race off the turf so it remains to be seen how many of Sunday’s six scheduled turf races will remain on the grass.

In addition to the two upset stakes winners, Saturday’s pick six sequence included Dapper Moon ($10.80), McCullough ($12.20), Brightwork ($7.10), and Over and Ollie ($16.40).
