The $10,000 Pick Six promotion, which has proven popular at night at Los Alamitos, will now be offered on both Saturdays of the upcoming Winter Thoroughbred meet.

The track announced Friday that it will add $10,000 to the Pick Six pool - provided there is no carryover - Dec. 9 and Dec. 16. The promotion has been offered on Sunday evenings since the start of the 2020-2021 quarter horse season.

The traditional $2 Pick Six features a 70-30 split with 70% of the pool going to those tickets with six winners with the remaining 30% going to tickets with five of six winners.

The 10th Winter Thoroughbred meet at Los Alamitos will begin Friday, Dec. 8. The six-day season will feature five stakes, three of which are graded, including the Grade II, $200,000-guaranteed Starlet for 2-year-old fillies Dec. 9 and the Grade II, $200,000-guaranteed Los Alamitos Futurity for 2-year-olds Dec. 16.

Post time will be 12:30 p.m. and entries for the opening day program will be taken Tuesday, Dec. 5.
