Betting
Types of Bets
Once you've selected a horse, you must decide which type of bet to make. The
basic bets are:
.
| Win |
You collect on a Win bet only if your horse finishes first. |
| Place |
You collect if your horse finishes first or second. |
| Show |
You're a winner if your horse is among the first three
finishers. |
You can make Win, Place and Show bets on every race. There are also "feature"
bets available, at least one on each race. Payoffs on these special bets can
range into the hundreds, sometimes even thousands of dollars - for a $2
investment. Feature bets available at Fraser Downs include:
.
| Daily
Double |
You bet that your choices in the 1 st and 2nd races of the day will
both finish first. The bet must be placed before the start of the first of
the two Daily Double races. If you choose more than one horse in one or
both races you may make a $1.00 wager and win half the payout listed on
the tote board. To calculate the cost of your wager, multiply the number
of horses selected in the first race, times the number of horses selected
in the second race. That's your wager. |
| Exactor |
You select two horses in the same race and you collect if they finish
first and second, in the order that you specified. If you choose to box
three or more horses, your ticket is a winner if any two of your
selections finish first or second.

You bet that your choices in four consecutive races will finish first.
The bet must be placed before the start of the first of the four races. If
you choose one horse in each race, your ticket will cost $1.00. If you
choose more than one horse in some or all four races, calculate the cost
of your wager by multiplying the number of horses selected in the first
race, times the number of horses selected in the second race, times the
number of horses selected in the third race, times the number of horses
selected in the fourth race.

You bet that your choices in six consecutive races will all finish
first. This bet must be placed before the start of the first of the six
races. If you choose one horse in each race, your ticket will cost $1.00.
If you choose more than one horse in some or all six races, calculate the
cost of your wager by multiplying the number of horses selected in the
first race, times the number of horses selected in the second race, times
the number of horses selected in the third race and so on.

The minimum cost of any single bet is $2 but when you make multiple "feature"
bets, the cost can be as little as $1 per combination. For example, you can make
a $1 Triactor "box" bet combining three horses in all possible combinations -
there are six possibilities - for $6.
