STRAIGHT OR BASIC WAGERS | EXOTIC WAGERING | HOW TO PLACE A WAGER HOW TO COLLECT YOUR WINNINGS
STRAIGHT OR BASIC WAGERS
There are a number of different wagers you can choose when wagering. All of these variations stem from one core premise:
Bettors receive payouts based on the first, second and third place finishers. In racing terms, they are based on Win, Place and Show.
Across The Board
You are wagering on a horse to Win, Place and Show. You receive one ticket for all three wagers. If your
horse wins, you receive Win, Place and Show payouts. If your horse finishes second, you receive Place and Show payouts;
and if your horse is third, you receive the Show payout. Because you are actually placing three wagers, the minimum wager is $6.
Daily Double
To win, you must select the winners of two designated, consecutive races by placing the wager before the first of
the two races.
Pick Three
You must select the correct first place finisher in each of the three races that make up the Pick Three.
Pick Six
You must select the correct winner in the six consecutive races that make up the Pick Six. The bet must be placed
before the first race on the Pick Six.
EXOTIC WAGERING
Exacta You win by selecting the first two finishers, in exact order, in a designated race.
Quinella You win by selecting the first two finishers, in any order, in a designated race.
Trifecta You must select the first three horses in the exact order of finish, in a designated race.
