Below you will find a list of Horse Wager Types that Heritage Sports offers all of its customers.


Win, Place, and Show Wagers:

Horse wagering is totally and completely different than that of sports betting. Bettors may wager on a given horse in a race to "win" (finish first), "place" (finish second), "show" (finish third), or they may wager "across the board" (to win, place, and show).

The odds for each horse to win, place, or show is entirely dependent on the amount of money bet into the pari-mutual pool.

The horse that finishes first will have payout odds on finishing first, second, and third. The horse that finishes second will have payout odds on finishing second, and third. The horse that finishes third will have payout odds on finishing third only.

Win: If you wagered on a horse to win only then that horse must finish first for the wager to be a winner. If the horse finishes first in the race then the wager will be paid off according to the Win odds.

Place: If you wagered on a horse to place only then that horse must either finish first, or second for the wager to be a winner. If the horse finishes first or second then the wager will be paid off according to the Place odds.

Show: If you wagered on a horse to show only then that horse must either finish first, second, or third for that wager to be a winner. If the horse finishes first, second, or third then the wager will be paid off according to the Show odds.

Across the Board: If you wagered "across the board" on a horse and it finished first in the race, you would be paid odds for the win, place, and show bets. If the horse finished second in the race you would be paid odds on the place and show bets. If the horse finished third in the race you would be paid odds on the show bet only.

Other Straight Wagers: You can also bet win and place, win and show, and place and show bets on a horse.

Exotic Horse Wagers:

Exacta wagers:

Exacta wagers require the player to pick the first two finishers in a race in exact order. This means that the player selects a horse to finish first, and a horse to finish second. Therefore the horse chosen to finish first MUST finish first and the horse chosen to finish second MUST finish second for this wager to be a winner. If the horse chosen to finish first does not then the wager is a loser. If the horse chosen to finish second does not then the wager is a loser.

Exacta wager example:

A player wants to bet 2 horses in a $10 exacta. The horses are Mylovelylady and Shesawinner.

Mylovelylady to win
Shesawinner to place
Risking $10.
Exacta Box wagers:

An exacta box wager is a multiple bet wager. The amount of bets depends on how many horses you select. Basically it is an exacta wager and then reversing the horses. Therefore if you select horse A to finish first and horse D to finish second, you also have a wager on horse D to finish first and horse A to finish second. You have 2 bets if it is a two horse exacta box (AD, and DA). An exacta box with 3 horses will have 6 bets (AD, AC, DC, DA, CA, and CD).

Exacta Box Example:

A player wants to put three horses in an exacta box for $10 each. The horses are Mylovelylady, Bluesmandan, and Shesawinnner.

Below you will find the combinations and the total amount risked for this $10 exacta box.


Mylovelylady to Win

Daily Double

Daily Double wagers require the bettor to pick the winners of two designated races, usually the 1st and 2nd, 2nd and 3rd, or 8th and 9th

Parlay

You can parlay horses at Heritage Sports. You can parlay a selected horse in one race to either win, place, or show to a horse in another race to win, place, or show.

Trifecta wagers

Trifecta wagers require the player to pick the first three finishers in a race in exact order. This means that the player selects a horse to finish first, a horse to finish second and a horse to finish third. If all 3 horses chosen do not finish in that order, the wager is a loser.

Trifecta wager example:

A player wants to bet 3 horses in a $10 trifecta. The horses are Mylovelylady, Shesawinner and foxylady.

Mylovelylady to win
Shesawinner to place
Foxylady to show
Risking $10.


Trifecta Box

A trifecta box wager is a multiple bet wager. The amount of bets depends on how many horses you select. Basically it is a trifecta wager with all possible combinations. Therefore if you select horses A, B and C you will have 6 possible combinations ( A,B,C – A,C,B – B,A,C – B,C,A – C,A,B – C,B,A )

Trifecta Box wager example:

Mylovelylady
Shesawinner
Foxylady
$10 Trifecta Box,
for a total of $60 at risk
.



Pick 3

Pick 3 wagers require the player to pick the winners of 3 consecutive winners on the same track. If one of the horses does not win then the wager will be graded as a loser.

Example of Pick 3:

Mylovelylady to win in Race 1
Shesawinner to win in Race 2
Foxylady to win in Race 3
$10 Pick 3

Pick 4

Shesmyheart to win in Race 4
