To win a quinella wager you must pick the first and second
place finishers in any order (if you play a 1-2 quinella,
and the race finishes 1-2 OR 2-1, you are a winner, this bet

a lower pay out.) Example: Churchill Downs, 3rd race, $2 quinella
on #1-2

selects all three winners, a pay-out is made to those selecting
the highest number of winners If no one selects a winner in

PICK SIX -
The Pick-6 is similar to the Pick-3 except that you must select
the winning horse in six consecutive races on a single ticket.
However, if no one selects all six winning horses from the
designated races on a single ticket a portion of that days
Pick-6 pool is distributed among the holders of tickets with
the most winning selections on a single ticket. The remaining
pool shall be "carried over" to the next racing day. The pool
is continually carried-over until such time that someone does
correctly select the six winning horses from the designated
races on a single ticket. EXAMPLE: Churchill, $1 Pick-6, #1-2-3-4-5-6.

If you win the 2nd half of the Twin Trifecta, simply cash
your ticket(s) for your share of the pool. In order to the
win the second half YOU MUST HAVE ALL THREE FINISHERS IN THE
EXACT ORDER. If there are no winners, the remaining pool will
"carry-over" to the next racing day.

on the tote board. In a trifecta, your selections must finish
first, second and third in that exact order. By boxing three
or more horses, if three of your selections cross the wire
first, second and third in whatever order, you are a winner.

$20. The examples given are for a $1 key.

wheel, 1 with 2 with 3-4-5" The cost of this bet would be
$3, covering the following winning combinations: 1-2-3, 1-2-4
and 1-2-5. EXAMPLE #2: If you think the #1 horse will finish
first and the #2, 3 or 4 horses will finish second , and #2,3,4,5
or 6 will finish third, you would ask for a "$1 part wheel,
1 with 2-3-4 with 2-3-4-5-6". The cost of this bet would be
$12 and will cover 12 different combinations: 1-2-3, 1-2-4,
