Hmmm... no Pick-6 for Preakness
 
Just noticed that there is no Pick-6 offered for the Preakness, or at any time during this Pimlico meet. I'm kinda bummed. Although a $1M guaranteed Pick-4 ain't bad, and they did include the Super High 5.

You know, it's not even so much for the Preakness day itself, but it would have been nice to have another huge Pick-6 carryover situation like we did at Churchill last week.

In the mail yesterday from Twinspires wife and I both got a free $2 wager on that for Preakness Day - going to have to give it a whirl.

Youbet has an outstanding promotion for the Preakness Pick 4. If you hit it you share in a 10k bonus being paid out to all account holders who hit the Pick 4.

will there be any bets that combine friday wagering with saturdays card? maybe a double or P3 like they had for the derby.

They're typically been a Black-Eyed Susan-Preakness or Pimlico Special-Preakness wager... so there a good chance. I'll check with Pimlico/MJC today.

I can't believe they don't have a Pick Six - I seem to recall there being .50 pick sixes at the Preakness the last few years.

Oh man...don't tease me. A 50 cent pick-6? I can't find any for less than $2, anywhere. Did the $0.50 P6 have a carryover in the (unlikely) event it wasn't hit?

I swear in like '07 there was a .50 Pick Six at Pimlico on Preakness day. Someone please tell me I'm not losing my mind here.

Ok, I wasn't crazy:

I don't understand at all why they don't have one. Last year it was fairly popular as there was over $260,000 in the pool on Preakness Day.
