  • what is pay for $2 exacta box #3,#5,#1? did $2 exacta wheel #3all win?

  • Hi nancib,

    The exacta was 5 over 1 so your box did come in for $88.40, but the wheel of 3 over all didn’t come in. Good job getting Cherry Wine in the mix!

  • What about superfecta box payouts???

  • Hi Lauren,

    The superfecta box payouts are the same as the superfecta payouts. Boxing your bet is essentially an easy way to make multiple wagers for all single race exotic bets (exacta, trifecta, superfecta). To keep the example simple, let’s say you played a winning $2 exacta box of 5 and 1. The wager would cost you $4 because you basically placed a $2 bet of 5 over 1 and a $2 bet of 1 over 5. If you had only placed the wager of 5 over 1 for a cost of $2, your payout would still be the same.

    Here’s more information on types of bets (including boxes):
