Daily Double Horse Racing Bet

The daily double involves picking the winning horse in two consecutive races on the same track. All tracks offer the early daily double which involves races #1 and #2. Most tracks also offer a late daily double which is the last two races of the day. Some tracks also offer a rolling daily double which is on any two consecutive races. To win a daily double you must pick the winning horse in each of the two races. Combination bets can also be made on daily doubles.

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.

This wager is very similar to the Pick 3, but the player must pick the winners of four consecutive races from a given track. In this type of wager the client will say the race that states the first leg of the Pick 4 and then the horses he wants on each leg separated by the word WITH.
