6. How do you treat bets on Scratched horses?

- A horse is scratched when it is listed as an entry in a race but it did not run in the race (prior to the start of the race). A horse maybe scratched early in the day or minutes before the race.
- Our system marks early and late scratches so that they can not be wagered on anymore.
- Refund. However, in cases where a wager was placed on horse that scratched, all bets on that scratched horse, straight bets and combination bets, the bet amount will be refunded.
- Scratches on Multi-race bets. Any scratches after the first leg of the multi-race ran will not be refunded. Example, you have a Pick 3 selection as follows:
Race 1- horse #1
Race 2 - horse #2
Race 3- horse #3
Suppose horse #1 lost on Race1, and on race #2 horse#2 scratched. You have a losing bet since your combination already has a loser.

7. What is a Coupled entry?

- Horses that belong to one owner or under one trainer, running on the same race are grouped "coupled" together so that when you bet on one you also get the other. Simply put, two horses running as one.
- Typical coupled entry horses are:

1 - Horse One
1A - Horse One A
or
2 - Horse Two
2B - Horse Two B

- Scratch. If one of the horses scratch but the other runs, your bet still has action. Refunds are given only if both of the horses scratch.
- Winner. If one of the horses win, then your bet with the other horse win, too. For example, you took 1A to WIN. The ensuing race result is Horse 1 - first spot, Horse 2- second spot, Horse 3 - 3rd spot. Your bet on Horse 1A is a winner because Horse 1A is considered the same as Horse 1. The same also apply to combination bets.
- Both win. In cases where both horses in a coupled entry win in a race, the higher payout will be applied. For example, a race result such as:
1 - 1st position
2 - 2nd position
1A - 3rd position
- 1A will have the same payout as 1 (Win, Place and Show). For combination payout purposes; for Trifecta the fourth spot finisher will me marked as 3rd ; and for Superfecta the 5th spot finisher will be marked as 4th.

8. What is a Field Entry?

- When there are so many horses running in a race, several horses are grouped together as field horses. For payouts and refunds, the same concepts in Coupled Entries apply. Simply put, 2 or more horses running as one.
- 12F, 13F, 14F, etc.

-Unlike a racetrack we DO NOT take money out of your account for a bet placed, we simply take the money out of your available to wager.

In the event your wager is a winner we then slide the wager amount back into your available to wager plus your NET win. This can easily be displayed if you go into your account history and click on the ticket number.
