I was imprecise. The DH was in the first leg, not the final leg. He did get paid for the non-jackpot portion of the P6 ... $4.5K x 2 combos for about $8900. No 5/6 paid when someone hits all 6 on the rainbows.The resulting carryover was $35,145, so that's the amount he was screwed out of.

The thing that gets me ... why, in these instances where the rules are poorly written and the track can clearly go either way, why, why, why do tracks almost always end up taking the path that screws the bettor? You'd think a bettor scooping a $45K pot on a quarter horse card would be good for publicity.
