Section R19-2-523. Calculation of Payoffs and Distribution of Pools

A.      General

1.        All permitted pari-mutuel wagering pools shall be sepa- rately and independently calculated and distributed. Take- out shall be deducted from each gross pool as stipulated by law. The remainder of the monies in the pool shall constitute the net pool for distribution as payoff on win- ning wagers.

2.        For each wagering pool, the amount wagered on the win- ning betting interest or betting combinations is deducted from the net pool to determine the profit; the profit is then divided by the amount wagered on the winning betting interest or combinations, such quotient being the profit per dollar.

3.        Either the standard or net price calculation procedure may be used to calculate single commission pools, while the net price calculation procedure must be used to calculate multi-commission pools.

a.     Standard Price Calculation Procedure

SINGLE PRICE POOL (WIN POOL)

gross pool       =      sum of wagers on all

betting interests - refunds takeout          =              gross pool x percent

takeout

net pool           =      gross pool - takeout

profit                 =                   net pool - gross amount bet on winner

profit per

dollar        =      profit / gross amount bet on

winner

$1 unbroken

price          =      profit per dollar + $1

$1 broken

price          =      $1 unbroken price rounded

down to the break point total payout    =              $1 broken price x gross

amount bet on winner total breakage = net pool - total payout

PROFIT SPLIT (PLACE POOL)

Profit is net pool less gross amount bet on all place finishers. Finishers split profit 1/2 and 1/2 (place profit), then divide by gross amount bet on each place finisher for two unique prices.

PROFIT SPLIT (SHOW POOL)

Profit is net pool less gross amount bet on all show finishers. Finishers split profit 1/3 and 1/3 and 1/3 (show profit), then divide by gross amount bet on each show finisher for three unique prices.

b.       Net Price Calculation Procedure

SINGLE PRICE POOL (WIN POOL)

gross pool               =      sum of wagers on all betting interests - refunds

takeout                      =      gross pool x percent takeout

* for each source:

net pool                   =      gross pool - takeout net bet on winner    =   gross amount bet on

winner x (1 - percent takeout)

total net pool            =      sum of all sources net

pools

total net bet on

winner                       =      sum of all sources net bet on winner

total profit                =      total net pool - total net bet on winner

profit per dollar       =      total profit / total net

bet on winner

$1 unbroken base

price                          =      profit per dollar + $1

* for each source:

$1 unbroken price  =      $1 unbroken base

price x (1 - percent takeout)

$1 broken price       =      $1 unbroken price

rounded down to the break point

total payout              =      $1 broken price x

gross amount bet on winner

total breakage           =      net pool - total payout PROFIT SPLIT (PLACE POOL)

Total profit is the total net pool less the total net amount bet on all place finishers. Finishers split total profit 1/2 and 1/2 (place profit), then divide by total net amount bet on each place finisher for two unique unbroken base prices.

PROFIT SPLIT (SHOW POOL)

Total profit is the total net pool less the total net amount bet on all show finishers. Finishers split total profit 1/3 and 1/3 and 1/3 (show profit), then divide by total net amount bet on each show finisher for three unique unbroken base prices.

4.      If a profit split results in only one covered winning bet- ting interest or combinations, it shall be calculated the same as a single price pool.

5.      Minimum payoffs and the method used for calculating breakage shall be established by the Department.

6.      The individual pools outlined in these rules may be given alternative names by each permittee, provided prior approval is obtained from the Department.

B.       Win Pools

1.        The amount wagered on the betting interest which fin- ishes first is deducted from the net pool, the balance

remaining being the profit; the profit is divided by the amount wagered on the betting interest finishing first, such quotient being the profit per dollar wagered to Win on that betting interest.

2.        The net Win pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

a.         To those whose selection finished first; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        To those whose selection finished second; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         To those whose selection finished third; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        The entire pool shall be refunded on Win wagers for that contest.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Win pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Win pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

C.      Place Pools

1.        The amounts wagered to Place on the first two betting interests to finish are deducted from the net pool, the bal- ance remaining being the profit; the profit is divided into two equal portions, one being assigned to each winning betting interest and divided by the amount wagered to Place on that betting interest, the resulting quotient is the profit per dollar wagered to Place on that betting interest.

2.        The net Place pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

a.         If contestants of a coupled entry or mutuel field fin- ished in the first two places, as a single price pool to those who selected the coupled entry or mutuel field; otherwise

b.        As a profit split to those whose selection is included within the first two finishers; but if there are no such wagers on one of those two finishers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those who selected the one covered betting interest included within the first two finishers; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to those who selected the third-place finisher, but if there are no such wagers, then

e.         The entire pool shall be refunded on Place wagers for that contest.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Place pool shall be distributed as a single price pool.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Place pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

4.        If there is a dead heat for second involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Place pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Place pool is divided with half of the profit distributed to Place wagers on the betting interest

finishing first and the remainder is distributed equally amongst Place wagers on those betting inter- ests involved in the dead heat for second.

D.      Show Pools

1.        The amounts wagered to Show on the first three betting interests to finish are deducted from the net pool, the bal- ance remaining being the profit; the profit is divided into three equal portions, one being assigned to each winning betting interest and divided by the amount wagered to Show on that betting interest, the resulting quotient being the profit per dollar wagered to Show on that betting interest.

2.        The net Show pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

a.         If contestants of a coupled entry or mutuel field fin- ished in the first three places, as a single price pool to those who selected the coupled entry or mutuel field; otherwise

b.        If contestants of a coupled entry or mutuel field fin- ished as two of the first three finishers, the profit is divided with two-thirds distributed to those who selected the coupled entry or mutuel field and one- third distributed to those who selected the other bet- ting interest included within the first three finishers; otherwise

c.         As a profit split to those whose selection is included within the first three finishers; but if there are no such wagers on one of those three finishers, then

d.        As a profit split to those who selected one of the two covered betting interests included within the first three finishers; but if there are no such wagers on two of those three finishers, then

e.         As a single price pool to those who selected the one covered betting interest included within the first three finishers; but if there are no such wagers, then

f.         As a single price pool to those who selected the fourth-place finisher; but if there are no such wagers, then

g.        The entire pool shall be refunded on Show wagers for that contest.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first involving:

a.         Two contestants representing the same betting inter- est, the profit is divided with 2/3rds distributed to those who selected the first-place finishers and one- third distributed to those who selected the betting interest finishing third.

b.        Three contestants representing a single betting inter- est, the Show pool shall be distributed as a single price pool.

c.         Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Show pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

4.        If there is a dead heat for second involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the profit is divided with one-third distributed to those who selected the betting interest finishing first and two-thirds distributed to those who selected the second-place finishers.

b.        Contestants representing two betting interests, the Show pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

c.         Contestants representing three betting interests, the Show pool is divided with one-third of the profit dis-

tributed to Show wagers on the betting interest fin- ishing first and the remainder is distributed equally among Show wagers on those betting interests involved in the dead heat for second.

5.        If there is a dead heat for third involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Show pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Show pool is divided with 2/3rds of the profit distributed to Show wagers on the betting interests finishing first and second and the remainder is distributed equally among Show wagers on those betting interests involved in the dead heat for third.

E.       Double Pools

1.        The Double requires selection of the first-place finisher in each of two specified contests.

2.        The net Double pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the offi- cial order of finish:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose selection fin- ished first in each of the two contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a profit split to those who selected the first-place finisher in either of the two contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those who selected the one covered first-place finisher in either contest; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to those whose selection fin- ished second in each of the two contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

e.         The entire pool shall be refunded on Double wagers for those contests.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first in either of the two contests involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Double pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Double pool shall be distributed as a profit split if there is more than one covered winning com- bination.

4.        Should a betting interest in the first-half of the Double be scratched prior to the first Double contest being declared official, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched betting interest shall be deducted from the Double pool and refunded.

5.        Should a betting interest in the second-half of the Double be scratched prior to the close of wagering on the first Double contest, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched betting interest shall be deducted from the Double pool and refunded.

6.        Should a betting interest in the second-half of the Double be scratched after the close of wagering on the first Dou- ble contest, all wagers combining the winner of the first contest with the scratched betting interest in the second

contest shall be allocated a consolation payoff. In calcu- lating the consolation payoff the net Double pool shall be divided by the total amount wagered on the winner of the first contest and an unbroken consolation price obtained. The broken consolation price is multiplied by the dollar value of wagers on the winner of the first contest com- bined with the scratched betting interest to obtain the con- solation payoff. Breakage is not declared in this calculation. The consolation payoff is deducted from the net Double pool before calculation and distribution of the winning Double payoff. Dead heats including separate betting interests in the first contest shall result in a conso- lation payoff calculated as a profit split.

7.        If either of the Double contests are cancelled prior to the first Double contest, or the first Double contest is declared “no contest,” the entire Double pool shall be refunded on Double wagers for those contests.

8.        If the second Double contest is cancelled or declared “no contest” after the conclusion of the first Double contest, the net Double pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to wagers selecting the winner of the first Double contest. In the event of a dead heat involving separate betting interests, the net Double pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

F.       Pick 3 Pools

1.        The Pick 3 requires selection of the first-place finisher in each of three specified contests.

2.        The net Pick 3 pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the offi- cial order of finish:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose selection fin- ished first in each of the three contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those who selected the first- place finisher in any two of the three contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those who selected the first- place finisher in any one of the three contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        The entire pool shall be refunded on Pick 3 wagers for those contests.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first in any of the three contests involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Pick 3 pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Pick 3 pool shall be distributed as a single

price pool with each winning wager receiving an equal share of the profit.

4.        Should a betting interest in any of the three Pick 3 con- tests be scratched, the actual favorite, as evidenced by total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the close of wagering on  that  contest,  shall be  substituted for  the scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations. In the event that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the substitute selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program num- ber. The totalisator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering combinations with substituted betting inter- ests which became winners as a result of the substitution, in addition to the normal winning combination.

5.        If all three Pick 3 contests are cancelled or declared “no contest,” the entire pool shall be refunded on Pick 3 wagers for those contests.

6.        If one or two of the Pick 3 contests are cancelled or declared “no contest,” the Pick 3 pool shall remain valid and shall be distributed in accordance with subsection (F)(2) of this rule.

G.      Pick (n) Pools

1.        The Pick (n) requires selection of the first-place finisher in each of a designated number of contests. The permittee

must obtain written approval from the Department con- cerning the scheduling of Pick (n) contests, the designa- tion of one of the methods prescribed in subsection (G)(2), and the amount of any cap to be set on the carry- over. Any changes to the approved Pick (n) format require prior approval from the Department.

2.        The Pick (n) pool shall be apportioned under one of the following methods:

a.         Method 1, Pick (n) with Carryover: The net Pick (n) pool and carryover, if any, shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first- place finisher in each of the Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no such wagers, then a designated percentage of the net pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests; and the remainder shall be added to the carryover.

b.        Method 2, Pick (n) with Minor Pool and Carryover: The major share of the net Pick (n) pool and the car- ryover, if any, shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in each of the Pick

(n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be dis- tributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in the second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place finisher of all Pick

(n) contests, the minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests; and the major share shall be added to the carryover.

c.         Method 3, Pick (n) with No Minor Pool and No Car- ryover: The net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as the single price pool to those who selected the first- place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) con- tests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

d.        Method 4, Pick (n) with Minor Pool and No Carry- over: The major share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in the sec- ond greatest number of Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place finisher in a second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, the minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be combined with the major share for distribution as a single price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests. If the greatest number of first-place finishers selected is 1, the major and minor shares are combined for distribution as a sin- gle price pool. If there are no winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

e.         Method 5, Pick (n) with Minor Pool and No Carry- over: The major share of net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place fin- isher in each of the Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in the second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, based upon the official

order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place finisher in all Pick (n) contests, the entire net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place finisher in a second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, the minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be combined with the major share for distribution as a single price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in each of the Pick (n) contests. If there are no winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first in any of the Pick (n) con- tests involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool with each winning wager receiving an equal share of the profit.

4.        Should a betting interest in any of the Pick (n) contests be scratched, the actual favorite, as evidenced by total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the host association for the contest at the close of wagering on that contest, shall be substituted for the scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations. In the event that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the substitute selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program number. The totalisator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering combinations with substituted betting interests which became winners as a result of the substitution, in addition to the normal win- ning combination.

5.        The Pick (n) pool shall be cancelled and all Pick (n) wagers for the individual performance shall be refunded if:

a.         At least two contests included as part of a Pick 3 are cancelled or declared “no contest.”

b.        At least three contests included as part of a Pick 4, Pick 5, or Pick 6 are cancelled or declared “no con- test.”

c.         At least four contests included as part of a Pick 7, Pick 8, or Pick 9 are cancelled or declared “no con- test.”

d.        At least five contests included as part of a Pick 10 are cancelled or declared “no contest.”

6.        If at least one contest included as part of a Pick (n) is can- celled or declared “no contest,” but not more than the number specified in subsection (G)(5) of this rule, the net pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those whose selection finished first in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests for that performance. Such distribution shall include the portion ordinarily retained for the Pick

(n) carryover but not the carryover from previous perfor- mances.

7.        The Pick (n) carryover may be capped at a designated level approved by the Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Pick (n) carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Pick (n) carry- over will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the Pick (n) carryover is frozen, 100% of the net pool, part of which ordinarily would be added to the Pick (n) carryover, shall be distrib- uted to those whose selection finished first in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests for that performance.

8.        A written request for permission to distribute the Pick (n) carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Department. The request shall contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

9.        Should the Pick (n) carryover be designated for distribu- tion on the final day of the meeting or on another speci- fied date on which there are no wagers selecting the first- place finisher in each of the Pick (n) contests, the entire pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those whose selection finished first in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests. The Pick (n) carryover shall be desig- nated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

a.         Upon written approval from the Department as pro- vided in subsection (G)(8) of this rule.

b.        Upon written approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap, a change from one type of Pick (n) wagering to another, or when the Pick (n) is discontinued.

c.         On the closing performance of the meet  or split meet.

10.     If, for any reason, the Pick (n) carryover must be held over to the corresponding Pick (n) pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bear- ing account approved by the Department. The Pick (n) carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the net Pick (n) pool of the following meet on a date and per- formance so designated by the Department.

11.     With the written approval of the Department, the permit- tee may contribute to the Pick (n) carryover a sum of money up to the amount of any designated cap.

12.     Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combina- tions, number of tickets sold, or number of live tickets remaining is strictly prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalisator and pari- mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.

13.     The permittee may suspend previously approved Pick (n) wagering with the prior approval of the Department. Any carryover shall be held until the suspended Pick (n) wagering is reinstated. A permittee may request approval of a Pick (n) wager or separate wagering pool for specific performances.

H.      Place Pick (n) Pools

1.        The Place Pick (n) requires selection of the first- or sec- ond-place finisher in each of a designated number of con- tests. The permittee must obtain written approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of Place Pick

(n) contests, the designation of one of the methods pre- scribed in subsection (H)(2), the distinctive name identi- fying the pool and the amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any changes to the approved Place Pick (n) format require prior approval from the Department.

2.        The Place Pick (n) pool shall be apportioned under one of the following methods:

a.         Method 1, Place Pick (n) with Carryover: The net Place Pick (n) pool and carryover, if any, shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in each of the Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no such wagers, then a designated percentage of the net pool shall be dis- tributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first-  or second-place finisher  in the  greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests; and the remainder shall be added to the carryover.

b.        Method 2, Place Pick (n) with Minor Pool and Car- ryover: The major share of the net Place Pick (n)

pool and the carryover, if any, shall be distributed to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in each of the Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the sec- ond greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first- or second-place finisher of all Place Pick (n) contests, the minor share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a sin- gle price pool to those who selected the first- or sec- ond-place finisher in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests; and the major share shall be added to the carryover.

c.         Method 3, Place (n) Pick with No Minor Pool and No Carryover: The net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no major winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

d.        Method 4, Place Pick (n) with Minor Pool and No Carryover: The major share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net Place Pick

(n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the second greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first- or second-place finisher in a second greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, the minor share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be combined with the major share for distribution as a single price pool to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests. If the greatest number of first- or second-place finishers selected is 1, the major and minor shares are combined for distribution as a sin- gle price pool. If there are no winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

e.         Method 5, Place Pick (n) with Minor Pool and No Carryover: The major share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in each of the Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the second greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first- or second-place finisher in all Place Pick (n) contests, the entire net Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests. If there are no wagers selecting the first or second-place fin- isher in a second greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests, the minor share of the net Place Pick (n) pool shall be combined with the major share for dis- tribution as a single price pool to those who selected the first- or second-place finisher in each of the Place Pick (n) contests. If there are no winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

3.        If there is a dead heat for first in any of the Place Pick (n) contests involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool with a winning wager including each betting interest participating in the dead heat.

4.        If there is a dead heat for second in any of the Place Pick

(n) contests involving:

a.         Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

b.        Contestants representing two or more betting inter- ests, the Place Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool with a winning wager including the betting interest which finished first or any betting interest involved in a dead heat for second.

5.        Should a betting interest in any Place Pick (n) contest be scratched, the actual favorite, as evidenced by total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the host association for the contest at the close of wagering on that contest, shall be substituted for the scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations. In the event that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the substitute selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program number. The totalisator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering combinations with substituted betting interests which became winners as a result of the substitution, in addition to the normal win- ning combination.

6.        The Place Pick (n) pool shall be cancelled and all Place Pick (n) wagers for the individual performance shall be refunded if:

a.         At least two contests included as part of a Place Pick 3 are cancelled or declared “no contest.”

b.        At least three contests included as part of a Place Pick 4, Place Pick 5, or Place Pick 6 are cancelled or declared “no contest.”

c.         At least four contests included as part of a Place Pick 7, Place Pick 8, or Place Pick 9 are cancelled or declared “no contest.”

d.        At least five contests included as part of a Place Pick 10 are cancelled or declared “no contest.”

7.        If at least one contest included as part of a Place Pick (n) is cancelled or declared “no contest,” but not more than the number specified in subsection (H)(6) of this rule, the net pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those whose selection finished first or second in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests for that performance. Such distribution shall include the portion ordinarily retained for the Place Pick (n) carryover but not the carry- over from previous performances.

8.        The Place Pick (n) carryover may be capped at a desig- nated level approved by the Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Place Pick

(n) carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Place Pick (n) carryover will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the Place Pick (n) carryover is frozen, 100% of the net pool, part of which ordinarily would be added to the Place Pick

(n) carryover, shall be distributed to those whose selec- tion finished first or second in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests for that performance.

9.        A written request for permission to distribute the Place Pick (n) carryover on a specific performance may be sub- mitted to the Department. The request must contain justi- fication for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

10.     Should the Place Pick (n) carryover be designated for dis- tribution on a specified date and performance in which there are no wagers selecting the first- or second-place finisher in each of the Place Pick (n) contests, the entire pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those whose selection finished first or second in the greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests. The Place Pick (n) car- ryover shall be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance under any of the following circum- stances:

a.         Upon written approval from the Department as pro- vided in subsection (H)(9) of this rule.

b.        Upon written approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap, a change from one type of Place Pick (n) wagering to another, or when the Place Pick (n) is discontinued.

c.         On the closing performance of the meet  or split meet.

11.     If, for any reason, the Place Pick (n) carryover must be held over to the corresponding Place Pick (n) pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the  Department. The Place Pick (n) carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the net Place Pick (n) pool of the follow- ing meet on a date and performance so designated by the Department.

12.     With the written approval of the Department, the permit- tee may contribute to the Place Pick (n) carryover a sum of money up to the amount of any designated cap.

13.     Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combina- tions, number of tickets sold, or number of live tickets remaining is strictly prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalisator and pari- mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.

14.     The permittee may suspend previously approved Place Pick (n) wagering with the prior approval of the Depart- ment. Any carryover shall be held until the suspended Place Pick (n) wagering is reinstated. A permittee may request approval of a Place Pick (n) wager or separate wagering pool for specific performances.

J.        Quinella Double Pools

1.        The Quinella Double requires selection of the first two finishers, irrespective of order, in each of two specified contests.

2.        The net Quinella Double pool shall be distributed to win- ning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

a.         If a coupled entry or mutuel field finishes as the first two contestants in either contest, as a single price pool to those selecting the coupled entry or mutuel field combined with the next separate betting inter- est in the official order of finish for that contest, as well as the first two finishers in the alternate Quinella Double contest; otherwise

7.        Should a betting interest in the second half of the Quinella Double be scratched prior to the close of wager- ing on the first Quinella Double contest, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched betting interest shall be deducted from the Quinella Double pool and refunded.

8.        Should a betting interest in the second half of the Quinella Double be scratched after the close of wagering on the first Quinella Double contest, all wagers combin- ing the winning combination in the first contest with a combination including the scratched betting interest in the second contest shall be allocated a consolation payoff. In calculating the consolation payoff, the net Quinella Double pool shall be divided by the total amount wagered on the winning combination in the first contest and an unbroken consolation price obtained. The unbroken con- solation price is multiplied by the dollar value of wagers on the winning combination in the first contest combined with a combination including the scratched betting inter- est in the second contest to obtain the consolation payoff. Breakage is not utilized in this calculation. The consola- tion payoff is deducted from the net Quinella Double pool before calculation and distribution of the winning Quinella Double payoff.

4.        If no first-half Twin Trifecta ticket selects the first three finishers of that contest in exact order, winning ticket holders shall not receive any exchange tickets for the sec- ond-half Twin Trifecta pool. In such case, the second-half Twin Trifecta pool shall be retained and added to any existing Twin Trifecta carryover pool.

5.        Winning tickets from the first half of the Twin Trifecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first three fin- ishers of the second-half of the Twin Trifecta. The sec- ond-half Twin Trifecta pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second Twin Trifecta contest:

a.         As a single price pool, including any existing carry- over monies, to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests; but if there are no such tickets, then

b.        The entire second-half Twin Trifecta pool for that contest shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding second- half Twin Trifecta pool of the next consecutive per- formance.

6.        If a winning first-half Twin Trifecta ticket is not pre- sented for cashing and exchange prior to the second-half Twin Trifecta contest, the ticket holder may still collect the monetary value associated with the first-half Twin Trifecta pool but forfeits all rights to any distribution of the second-half Twin Trifecta pool.

7.        Should a betting interest in the first half of the Twin Tri- fecta be scratched, those Twin Trifecta wagers including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.

8.        Should a betting interest in the second-half of the Twin Trifecta be scratched, an announcement concerning the scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of time shall be provided for exchange of tickets that include the scratched betting interest. If tickets have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the second Twin Trifecta contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the second-half Twin Trifecta pool.

9.        If, due to a late scratch, the number of betting interests in the second half of the Twin Trifecta is reduced to fewer than the minimum, all exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning tickets shall be entitled to the second- half Twin Trifecta pool for that contest as a single price pool, but not the Twin-Trifecta carryover.

10.     If there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first- or second-half of the Twin Trifecta, all Twin Tri- fecta wagers selecting the correct order of finish, count- ing a betting interest involved in a dead heat as finishing in any dead-heated position, shall be a winner. In the case of a dead heat occurring in:

a.         The first half of the Twin Trifecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a profit split.

b.        The second half of the Twin Trifecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a single price pool.

11.     If either of the Twin Trifecta contests are cancelled prior to the first Twin Trifecta contest, or the first Twin Trifecta contest is declared “no contest,” the entire Twin Trifecta pool shall be refunded on Twin Trifecta wagers for that contest and the second half shall be cancelled.

12.     If the second-half Twin Trifecta contest is cancelled or declared “no contest,” all exchange tickets and outstand- ing first-half winning Twin Trifecta tickets shall be enti- tled to the net Twin Trifecta pool for that contest as a single price pool, but not Twin-Trifecta carryover. If there are no such tickets, the net Twin Trifecta pool shall be distributed as described in subsection (O)(3) of the Twin Trifecta rules.

13.     The Twin-Trifecta carryover may be capped at a desig- nated level approved by the Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Twin- Tri- fecta carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Twin-Trifecta carryover will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the Twin Trifecta carryover is frozen, 100% of the net Twin Trifecta pool for each individual contest shall be distrib- uted to carryover winners of the first half of the Twin Tri- fecta pool.

14.     A written request for permission to distribute the Twin- Trifecta carryover on a specific performance may be sub- mitted to the Department. The request must contain justi- fication for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

15.     Should the Twin-Trifecta carryover be designated for dis- tribution on a specified date and performance, the follow- ing precedence will be followed in determining winning tickets for the second half of the Twin Trifecta after com- pletion of the first half of the Twin Trifecta:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to holders of valid exchange tickets.

e.         As a single price pool to holders of outstanding first- half winning tickets.

16.     Contrary to subsection (O)(4) of the Twin Trifecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute the Twin- Trifecta carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those combinations selecting the greatest number of bet- ting interests in their correct order of finish for the first half of the Twin Trifecta. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first-, second-, and third-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly selecting the first- and second- place betting interests. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first- and second-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly selecting the first-place betting interest only. If there are no wagers selecting the first- place betting interest only in the first half of the Twin Tri- fecta, all first-half tickets will become winners and will receive 100% of that day’s net Twin Trifecta pool and any existing Twin-Trifecta carryover as a single price pool.

17.     The Twin-Trifecta carryover shall be designated for dis- tribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

a.         Upon written approval from the Department as pro- vided in subsection (O)(15) of the Twin Trifecta rules.

b.        Upon written approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap or when the Twin Trifecta is discontinued.

c.         On the closing performance of the meet  or split meet.

18.     If, for any reason, the Twin-Trifecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding Twin Trifecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the  Department. The Twin-Trifecta carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the second-half Twin Trifecta pool of the following meet on a date and performance so designated by the Department.

19.     Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combina- tions, number of tickets sold, or number of valid exchange tickets is prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalisator and pari- mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.

20.     The permittee must obtain written approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of Twin Trifecta contests, the percentages of the net pool added to the first-half pool and second-half pool, and the amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any changes to the approved Twin Trifecta  format require prior approval from the Department.

P.       Tri-Superfecta Pools

1.        The Tri-Superfecta requires selection of the first three finishers, in their exact order, in the first of two desig- nated contests and the first four finishers, in exact order, in the second of the two designated contests. Each win-

ning ticket for the first Tri-Superfecta contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the second Tri-Superfecta contest in order to remain eligible for the second-half Tri- Superfecta pool. Such tickets may be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second Tri-Super- fecta contest. Winning first-half Tri-Superfecta tickets will receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff. Both of the designated Tri-Superfecta contests shall be included in only one Tri-Superfecta pool.

2.        After wagering closes for the first-half of the Tri-Super- fecta and commissions have been deducted from the pool, the net pool shall then be divided into two separate pools: the first-half Tri-Superfecta pool and the second-half Tri- Superfecta pool.

3.        In the first Tri-Superfecta contest only, winning tickets shall be determined using the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the first Tri- Superfecta contest:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        The entire Tri-Superfecta pool shall be refunded on Tri-Superfecta for that contest and the second half shall be cancelled.

4.        If no first-half Tri-Superfecta ticket selects the first three finishers of that contest in exact order, winning ticket holders shall not receive any exchange tickets for the sec- ond-half Tri-Superfecta pool. In such case, the second- half Tri-Superfecta pool shall be retained and added to any existing Tri-Superfecta carryover pool.

5.        Winning tickets from the first half of the Tri-Superfecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four fin- ishers of the second-half of the Tri-Superfecta. The sec- ond-half Tri-Superfecta pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second Tri-Superfecta contest:

a.         As a single price pool, including any existing carry- over monies, to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such tickets, then

b.        The entire second-half Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding second- half Tri-Superfecta pool of the next performance.

6.        If a winning first-half Tri-Superfecta ticket is not pre- sented for cashing and exchange prior to the second-half Tri-Superfecta contest, the ticket holder may still collect the monetary value associated with the first-half Tri- Superfecta pool but forfeits all rights to any distribution of the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool.

7.        Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be prohibited in Tri-Superfecta contests.

8.        Should a betting interest in the first-half of the Tri-Super- fecta be scratched, those Tri-Superfecta tickets including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.

9.        Should a betting interest in the second-half of the Tri- Superfecta be scratched, an announcement concerning the scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of time shall be provided for exchange of tickets that include

the scratched betting interest. If tickets have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the second Tri- Superfecta contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool.

10.     If, due to a late scratch, the number of betting interests in the second-half of the Tri-Superfecta is reduced to fewer than the minimum, all exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning tickets shall be entitled to the second- half Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool, but not the Tri-Superfecta carryover.

11.     If there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first or second half of the Tri-Superfecta, all Tri-Super- fecta tickets selecting the correct order of finish, counting a betting interest involved in a dead heat as finishing in any dead-heated position, shall be a winner. In the case of a dead heat occurring in

a.         The first-half of the Tri-Superfecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a profit split.

b.        The second-half of the Tri-Superfecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a single price pool.

12.     If either of the Tri-Superfecta contests are cancelled prior to the first Tri-Superfecta contest, or the first Tri-Super- fecta contest is declared “no contest,” the entire Tri- Superfecta pool shall be refunded on Tri-Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second half shall be can- celled.

13.     If the second-half Tri-Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared “no contest,” all exchange tickets and outstand- ing first-half winning Tri-Superfecta tickets shall be enti- tled to the net Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool, but not the Tri-Superfecta carryover. If no there are no such tickets, the net Tri-Superfecta pool shall be distributed as described in subsection (P)(3) of the Tri-Superfecta rules.

14.     The Tri-Superfecta carryover may be capped at a desig- nated level approved by the Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Tri-Super- fecta carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Tri-Superfecta carryover will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the second-half Tri-Superfecta carryover is frozen, 100% of the net Tri-Superfecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of the first-half of the Tri- Superfecta pool.

15.     A written request for permission to distribute the Tri- Superfecta carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Department. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and perfor- mance for the distribution.

16.     Should the Tri-Superfecta carryover be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the fol- lowing precedence will be followed in determining win- ning tickets for the second half of the Tri-Superfecta after completion of the first half of the Tri-Superfecta:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

e.         As a single price pool to holders of valid exchange tickets.

f.         As a single price pool to holders of outstanding first- half winning tickets.

17.     Contrary to subsection (P)(4) of the Tri-Superfecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute the Tri- Superfecta carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those combinations selecting the greatest number of bet- ting interests in their correct order of finish for the first- half of the Tri-Superfecta. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first-, second-, and third-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly selecting the first- and second- place betting interests. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first- and second-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly selecting the first-place betting interest only. If there are no wagers selecting the first- place betting interest only in the first half of the Tri- Superfecta, all first-half tickets will become winners and will receive 100% of that day’s net Tri-Superfecta pool and any existing  Tri-Superfecta carryover as  a  single price pool.

18.     The Tri-Superfecta carryover shall be designated for dis- tribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

a.         Upon written approval from the Department as pro- vided in subsection (P)(15) of the Tri-Superfecta rules.

b.        Upon written approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap or when the Tri-Superfecta is discontinued.

c.         On the closing performance of the meet  or split meet.

19.     If, for any reason, the Tri-Superfecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding Tri-Superfecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the  Department. The Tri-Superfecta carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool of the following meet on a date and performance so desig- nated by the Department.

20.     Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combina- tions, number of tickets sold, or number of valid exchange tickets is prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalisator and pari- mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.

21.     The permittee must obtain written approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of Tri-Superfecta contests, the percentages of the net pool added to the first-half pool and second-half pool, and the amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any changes to the approved Tri-Superfecta format require prior approval from the Department.

Q.      Twin Superfecta Pools

1.        The Twin Superfecta requires selection of the first four finishers, in their exact order, in each of two designated contests. Each winning ticket for the first Twin Super- fecta contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the second Twin Superfecta contest in order to remain eligi- ble for the second-half Twin Superfecta pool. Such tickets

may be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second Twin Superfecta contest. Winning first-half Twin Superfecta tickets will receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff. Both  of the designated  Twin Superfecta contests shall be included in only one Twin Superfecta pool.

2.        After wagering closes for the first half of the Twin Super- fecta and commissions have been deducted from the pool, the net pool shall then be divided into two separate pools: the first-half Twin Superfecta pool and the second-half Twin Superfecta pool.

3.        In the first Twin Superfecta contest only, winning wagers shall be determined using the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the first Twin Superfecta contest:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

e.         The entire Twin Superfecta pool shall be refunded on Twin Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second half shall be cancelled.

4.        If no first-half Twin Superfecta ticket selects the first four finishers of that contest in exact order, winning ticket holders shall not receive any exchange tickets for the sec- ond-half Twin Superfecta pool. In such case, the second- half Twin Superfecta pool shall be retained and added to any existing Twin Superfecta carryover pool.

5.        Winning tickets from the first half of the Twin Superfecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four fin- ishers of the second half of the Twin Superfecta. The sec- ond-half Twin Superfecta pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second Twin Superfecta contest:

a.         As a single price pool, including any existing carry- over monies, to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such tickets, then

b.        The entire second-half Twin Trifecta pool for that contest shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding second- half Twin Superfecta pool of the next performance.

6.        If a winning first-half Twin Superfecta ticket is not pre- sented for cashing and exchange prior to the second-half Twin Superfecta contest, the ticket holder may still col- lect the monetary value associated with the  first-half Twin Superfecta pool but forfeits all rights to any distri- bution of the second-half Twin Trifecta pool.

7.        Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be prohibited in Twin Superfecta contests.

8.        Should a betting interest in the first half of the Twin Superfecta be scratched, those Twin Superfecta tickets including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.

9.        Should a betting interest in the second half of the Twin Superfecta be scratched, an announcement concerning the scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of

time shall be provided for exchange of tickets that include the scratched betting interest. If tickets have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the second Twin Superfecta contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the second-half Twin Superfecta pool.

10.     If, due to a late scratch, the number of betting interests in the second-half of the Twin Superfecta is reduced  to fewer than the minimum, all exchange tickets and out- standing first-half winning tickets shall be entitled to the second-half Twin Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool but not the Twin Superfecta carryover.

11.     If there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first- or second-half of the Twin Superfecta, all Twin Superfecta tickets selecting the correct order of finish, counting a betting interest involved in a dead heat as fin- ishing in any dead-heated position, shall be a winner. In the case of a dead heat occurring in:

a.         The first half of the Twin Superfecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a profit split.

b.        The second half of the Twin Superfecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a single price pool.

12.     If either of the Twin Superfecta contests is cancelled prior to the first Twin Superfecta contest, or the first Twin Superfecta contest is declared “no contest,” the entire Twin Superfecta pool shall be refunded on Twin Super- fecta wagers for that contest and the second half shall be cancelled.

13.     If the second-half Twin Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared “no contest,” all exchange tickets and outstand- ing first-half winning Twin Superfecta tickets shall be entitled to the net Twin Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool but not the Twin Superfecta carryover. If there are no such tickets, the net Twin Superfecta pool shall be distributed as described in subsection (Q)(3) of the Twin Superfecta rules.

14.     The Twin Superfecta carryover may be capped at a desig- nated level approved by the Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Twin Super- fecta carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Twin Superfecta carryover will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the second-half Twin Superfecta carryover is frozen, 100% of the net Twin Superfecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of the first half of the Twin Superfecta pool.

15.     A written request for permission to distribute the Twin Superfecta carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Department. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and perfor- mance for the distribution.

16.     Should the Twin Superfecta carryover be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the fol- lowing precedence will be followed in determining win- ning tickets for the second half of the Twin Superfecta after completion of the first half of the Twin Superfecta:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

e.         As a single price pool to holders of valid exchange tickets.

f.         As a single price pool to holders of outstanding first- half winning tickets.

17.     Contrary to subsection (Q)(4) of the Twin Superfecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute the Twin Superfecta carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those combinations selecting the greatest num- ber of betting interests in their correct order of finish for the first-half of the Twin Superfecta. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first-, second-, third-, and fourth-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly select- ing the first-, second-, and third-place betting interests. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first-, second-, and third-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations cor- rectly selecting the first- and second-place betting inter- ests. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first- and second-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations cor- rectly selecting the first-place betting interest only. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place betting inter- est only in the first half of the Twin Superfecta, all first- half tickets will become winners and will receive 100% of that day’s net Twin Superfecta pool and any existing Twin Superfecta carryover as a single price pool.

18.     The Twin Superfecta carryover shall be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

a.         Upon written approval from the Department as pro- vided in subsection (Q)(15) of the Twin Superfecta rules.

b.        Upon written approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap or when the Twin Superfecta is discontinued.

c.         On the closing performance of the meet  or split meet.

19.     If, for any reason, the Twin Superfecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding Twin Superfecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the  Department. The Twin Superfecta carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the second-half Twin Superfecta pool of the following meet on a date and performance so desig- nated by the Department.

20.     Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combina- tions, number of tickets sold, or number of valid exchange tickets is prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communications between totalisator and pari- mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.

21.     The permittee must obtain written approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of Twin Super- fecta contests, the percentages of the net pool added to the first-half pool and second-half pool, and the amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any changes to the approved Twin Superfecta format require prior approval from the Department.

R.      Grand Slam Pools

1.        The Grand Slam requires selection of the Exacta, Tri- fecta, and Superfecta, respectively, in three consecutive

contests. Each winning ticket for the first Grand Slam contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the second Grand Slam contest in order to remain eligible for the second contest share of the Grand Slam pool. Such tickets may be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second Grand Slam contest. Winning Grand Slam tickets on the first race shall receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff. Each winning ticket for the sec- ond Grand Slam contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the third Grand Slam Contest in order to remain eligible for the third contest share of the Grand Slam pool. Such tickets must be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the third Grand Slam contest. Winning tickets on the second race shall receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff. The three designated Grand Slam contests shall be included in only one Grand Slam pool.

2.        After wagering closes for the first contest of the Grand Slam and commissions have been deducted from  the pool, the net pool shall be divided into three separate pools: the first contest pool (25%), the second contest pool (25%), and the third contest pool (50%).

3.        In the first Grand Slam contest only, winning wagers shall be determined using the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the first Grand Slam contest:

a.         If contestants of a coupled entry or mutuel field fin- ish as the first two finishers, as a single price pool to those selecting the coupled entry or mutuel field combined with the next separate betting interest in the official order of finish; otherwise

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a profit split to those whose combination included either the first-place betting interest to fin- ish first or the second-place betting interest to finish second; but if there are no such wagers on one of those two finishers, then

d.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included the one covered betting interest to finish first or second.

4.        Winning tickets from the first contest of the Grand Slam shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first three fin- ishers of the second contest of the Grand Slam. The sec- ond contest pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second Grand Slam contest:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        The entire pool for the second and third contests shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the third contest pool of the next perfor- mance.

5.        Winning tickets for the second contest of the Grand Slam shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four fin- ishers of the third contest of the Grand Slam. The third contest pool and any existing carryover monies shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following prece- dence, based upon the official order of finish for the third Grand Slam contest:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        The entire pool for the third contest shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding third contest pool of the next perfor- mance.

6.        If a winning Grand Slam ticket is not presented for cash- ing and exchange prior to the next Grand Slam contest, the ticket holder may still collect the monetary value associated with the corresponding pool but forfeits all rights to any distribution of subsequent Grand Slam pools.

7.        Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be prohibited in the second and third races of the Grand Slam.

8.        Should a betting interest in the first contest of the Grand Slam be scratched, those Grand Slam wagers including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.

9.        Should a betting interest in the second or third contests of the Grand Slam be scratched, an announcement concern- ing the scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of time shall be provided for exchange of tickets that include the scratched betting interest. If tickets have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the corre- sponding contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the remainder of the Grand Slam pool.

10.     If there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in any of the contests of the Grand Slam, all Grand Slam wagers selecting the correct order of finish, counting a betting interest involved in a dead heat as finishing in any dead- heated position, shall be winners. Contrary to the usual practice, the aggregate number of winning tickets shall be divided into the net pool and paid the same price.

11.     If any of the Grand Slam contests are cancelled prior to the first Grand Slam contest, or the first Grand Slam con- test is declared “no contest,” the entire Grand Slam pool shall be refunded on Grand Slam wagers for that contest and the remaining Grand Slam contests shall be can- celled. Any existing carryover monies pursuant to sub- sections (R)(4) and (5) of this rule shall carryover to the next consecutive racing program of that meeting.

12.     If the second contest of the Grand Slam is canceled or declared “no contest,” or if less than three contestants fin- ish, the second contest pool of the Grand Slam shall be distributed equally among holders of second contest Grand Slam exchange tickets, and the third-contest pool of the Grand Slam shall carryover to the third-contest pool of the next performance.

13.     If the third contest of the Grand Slam is canceled or declared “no contest” before the second contest has been made official but after the first contest (pursuant to sub- section (R)(11) of this rule), that racing day’s third-con- test pool shall be distributed equally among holders of second-contest Grand Slam exchange tickets. If the third contest of the Grand Slam is cancelled or declared “no contest” after the second contest has been made official, that racing day’s third contest shall be distributed equally among holders of the third-contest Grand Slam exchange tickets. In such instance, no carryover pool would be gen- erated from that racing day.

14.     If no distribution is made pursuant to subsection (R)(5)(a) of this rule, on the last day of the race meeting the permit- tee shall distribute the third-race pool and any existing carryover monies equally among the holders of exchange tickets selecting the finishing contestants in the third race. The net pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

d.        As a single price pool to all holders of third-race tickets.

15.     If there were no winning wagers in the second race of the Grand Slam on the last day of the race meeting, the per- mittee shall distribute the second-race pool and any exist- ing carryover monies equally among the holders of exchange tickets selecting the finishing contestants in the second race. The net pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the offi- cial order of finish:

a.         As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

b.        As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if there are no such wagers, then

c.         As a single price pool to all holders of second-race tickets.

16.     If there were no winning wagers in the first race of the Grand Slam on the last day of the race meeting, the per- mittee shall distribute the first-race pool and any existing carryover monies as a profit split to the holders of tickets selecting either the first-place finisher to finish first or the second-place finisher to finish second. If there were still no winning wagers in the first race of the Grand Slam, such monies shall be distributed to all ticket holders.
