The 'Sport of Kings' offers exciting wagering opportunities, as well

HORSE RACING BETTING RULES AND PAYOUTS
Please complete your horse wagers 2 minutes prior to the scheduled start time of the race.
All bets are time stamped to avoid past-posting.
An accepted wager will be deemed no action if placed after the official start time.
This is due to the frequent difference between scheduled and official start times.
Official race times are according to the 'Off' time on drf.
All wagers with a time stamp after the official time of the start of the race will be deemed no action.
Wagers with a time stamp THE SAME AS the official time of the start of the race ARE ALSO NO ACTION.
A scratch is an entrant that is withdrawn from its race. One scratch
in a 2 horse parlay results in a straight wager on the remaining horse
for the original bet amount. All other scratches result in NO-Action.
The post-time favorite is NOT substituted for scratched entrants.
When you wager on a horse that is coupled you receive all horses running under said number. If a coupled horse scratches you still have action on any other similarly coupled horse(s). For phone wagering only: if you wish to only have action on one coupled horse, you must specify that your horse, by name, must go for action. This is not available on the internet.
All horse racing rules and payouts will apply to all tracks according
to the following charts.

EXPLANATION OF WAGERING
HOW TO WAGER
Wagers should be placed in the following order:
- Track name Race number
- Amount of wager
- Type of bet
- Name of horse
Minimum wagers: Call Center: $2 Internet: $1
Races are graded as results become available.
WIN - Your horse must finish first, and you collect the win payoff, less amount wagered.
PLACE - Your horse must finish either first or second to collect the place payoff less amount wagered.
SHOW - Your horse must finish either first, second, or third, to collect the show payoff, less amount wagered.
ACROSS THE BOARD - Three separate bets - win, place and show-on the same horse. Example: $20 across is 3 $20 wagers for a total stake of $60.
DAILY DOUBLE - You must select the winning horses of two consecutive races, usually the first and second and sometimes the last two races. Daily Double wagers must be made before the first race involved in the wager begins. An "Early Double" is a daily double wager on the first 2 races; a "Late Double" is on the last two races.
PICK 3 - You must select the winning horses of three consecutive races where the pick 3 wager type is offered.
QUINELLA - To win a quinella you must pick two horses that can finish either way, first or second.
QUINELLA BOX -You may select three (or more)horses you think have the best chance of finishing first and second. If two of your horses finish first and second in either order, you collect the quinela payoff.
QUINELLA WHEEL - You may select the horse you think has the best chance of finishing first or second and tell the clerk to Quinela Wheel that horse (with all other horses)- If your horse finishes first or second regardless of any other finisher, you collect the quinela payoff.
EXACTA - To win an exacta you must pick the two horses finishing first and second in that exact order. EXACTA BOX - You may select any 2 or more horses and bet that they will finish 1st and 2nd in any combination or order.
TRIFECTA - You must select the three horses that finish first, second and third in exact order.
TRIFECTA BOX - You may select three (or more)horses you think have the best chance of finishing first, second, and third. Because this is a multiple wager, the horses can finish in any order. If three of the horses you have boxed finish first, second and third, you are a winner.
KEY - In the preceeding wager types, you must select specific horses to finish in specific positions.
WIN, PLACE OR SHOW PARLAYS2 Horses to finish in specific positions in different races (same track) may be parlayed together. For instance, you could make a win-parlay with Horse #3 in the 2nd race, and Horse #4 in the 3rd race. Both horses must finish in the chosen position to collect the parlay payoff. Win prices are based on $2, so divide the payout amounts by 2 for the payout per dollar. Parlay payoffs are calculated as follows: Bet amount x (1st payout/2) x (2nd payout/2) - bet amount.
SCRATCHES A scratch is an entrant that is withdrawn from its race. One scratch in a 2 horse parlay results in a straight wager on the remaining horse for the original bet amount. All other scratches result in No-Action. The post-time favorite is NOT substituted for scratched entrants.
How to Calculate Straight Wagers:
(Payout Amount) x (1 /2 Bet) - (Total Bet) = Amount Won or Lost
EXAMPLE: 1800 Bets 200 on Blue Horseshoe to win in the 9th Race at Hollywood Park. The Horse wins and pays $18.50: (18.50) x (100) - (200) = (+1650).
Note: All horse payouts are based on a $2.00 bet. When the track
says the horse paid $18.50 that means you win $18.50 per every two
dollars bet. A horse would have to pay over $52.00 to exceed our maximum
payout.

TYPES OF RACES STAKES RACE - These are the major races. Owners pay a fee to nominate and enter their horses. The track puts up an amount of added money along with the entry fees to increase the purse size.
MAIDEN RACE - This race is exclusively for horses that have never won a race.
CLAIMING RACE - The claiming race is the most familiar of all races. Horses in a claiming race are up for sale and may be purchased before the race is run.
ALLOWANCE RACE - Allowance horses are usually below the level of stake horse. These races have eligibility conditions, i.e. weight, age, races won.
HANDICAP RACE - Horses in a handicap race are competitive on an equal basis as determined by the horses' abilities as seen by the tracks' handicappers. Weight is assigned by the racing secretary to "equal out" the horses, in order to make this type of race as competitive as possible.
