Ohio Admin. Code 3769-3-22 - Trifecta wagering
(A) The object of the trifecta is to select,
in one combination and on one ticket, in exact order, the first, second and
third place horses (or first, second and third separate wagering interests if
entry or field horses are entered) as officially posted in the designated
trifecta race.
(B) The trifecta is
calculated as an entirely separate pool and, except for the contingencies
below, is calculated in the same general manner as a win pool.
(C) If a horse is scratched or excused from
racing, no further tickets shall be sold designating such horse and all tickets
sold designating such horse shall be refunded immediately and the money
deducted from the gross pool, except in the case of tickets with multiple bets,
when the combinations containing the scratch horse shall be refunded after the
race is official. The money thus refunded will be deducted from the gross pool.
(D) When there is no ticket sold
in the trifecta pool coupling the horses finishing first, second and third, in
the exact order of official result, the net pool shall be apportioned equally
to those who select correct ticket combinations in the following order of
priority:
(1) (1-2-all) if none, then
(2) (1-all-all) if none, then
(3) (all-all-all) (refund)
Failure to select the first horse to win shall cause a full refund of the trifecta pool to those who purchased trifecta tickets.
(E) In the event of a
dead heat for first place in a trifecta, the payoff price shall be calculated
as in a place pool. The winning combinations shall include the first two horses
finishing in either position and the horse finishing third.
(1) In the event of a dead heat for second
position in a trifecta, the payoff prices will be calculated as in a place
pool. The winning combinations shall include the horse finishing first, and the
two horses finishing in a dead heat for second, as finishing in either
position.
(2) In the case of a
dead heat for third in a trifecta, the payoff prices will be calculated as in a
place pool. The winning combinations shall include the horse finishing first,
the horse finishing second, and either of the two horses finishing in a dead
heat for third.
(3) In the case of
a dead heat where there is no winning ticket on one dead heat combination, the
entire net pool will go to the other winning combination(s).
(F) If entry or field horses are
entered in a trifecta and finish in two or three of the first three positions
or if such entry or field horses finish in a dead heat for the first, second or
third position, then the next separate wagering interest or interests shall be
selected so that the first three separate wagering interests are used in
calculating the trifecta payoff for each eligible combination.
