§306.40. Pool Distribution

a)         The net trifecta pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

 

1)         If contestants of a coupled entry or mutuel field finish, in any combination, within the first three finishers, as a single price pool to those selecting the coupled entry or mutuel field combined with the next separate betting interest; otherwise

 

2)         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

 

3)         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

 

4)         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

 

5)         The entire pool shall be refunded on trifecta wagers for that contest.

 

b)         If less than three betting interests finish and the contest is declared official, payoffs will be made based upon the order of finish of those betting interests completing the contest (e.g., 2 horses finish = 1-2-All or 1 horse finishes = 1-All-All).
