With snow and continued freezing temperatures in the forecast, Aqueduct has canceled today for both live racing and simulcasting.

When and if racing resumes tomorrow, there will be a four-day Pick 6 carryover of $761,021.46, the largest in New York since 1990. The biggest carryover ever in New York was $817,348 on Aug. 12, 1988, when another $1.6 million was bet into the pool.

Yesterday’s Pick 6, which offered a carryover of $270,911, went off without a hitch despite the cold. An extra $871,306 was bet into the pool, for a total of $1,142,217, but many players were wiped out immediately when Penny’s Turn ($33.40) won the fourth race. Many more were eliminated when the entry of Hope’s Diamond and Polonia, favored at 4-5, lost to Burning Fluid ($12) in the fifth, and when 8-5 choice Pagan Place was off-the-board in the sixth, won by Thistledown shipper Your Abc’s ($31.60).

The surviving Pick 6 players breathed easier when 8-5 chalk Reaching Up ($4.40) won the seventh, another short price, Dr. Rockett ($6.60), took the eighth, and 14 tickets were still alive with 3-2 favorite Festy Eskimo in the finale.

But a carryover was assured when 1-for-31 outsider Le Renard Subtil ($56.50) turned back Festy Eskimo’s bid in deep stretch, assuring a Pick 6 pool of $2 million or more for Aqueduct’s next card. The largest Pick 6 payoff in New York history, $767,998, was paid out at the Big A on April 9, 1990.

After losing all or part of three racing programs in the past week, Aqueduct will be open next Wednesday, a scheduled dark day, as the track runs Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday. Also, an extra race has been added to this Saturday’s card.
