Horse Racing Betting Types
Quinella
In the Quinella, you
must pick the horses that finish first and second.
Either one can be first and the other one second.
This bet functions exactly the same as the "Exacta
Box". Although the Quinella has the same
function as the "Exacta Box" the payoff
can vary substantially. You must remember that
there is no such wager of an exacta box, it is
really two separate bets on one ticket.
The Quinella wagers
are entered into their own pool separate from
the exacta pool. Not all tracks offer the Quinella
wager, but to the best of my knowledge all tracks
accept the term exacta box where ever the exacta
wager is offered. If both the Quinella and Exacta
wagers are offered it is wise to check the tote
board before making a Quinella or Exact Box wager
to see which one offers the greater payoff. |
