CHAPTER 9

RULES FOR PARI-MUTUEL  BETTING

Section 1.  Mutuels - General  Provision.

(a)                General

Each Permittee shall conduct wagering in accordance with applicable laws and these rules. Such wagering shall employ a pari-mutuel system approved by the Commission.  The totalisator shall be tested as required by the Commission.

(b)               Records

(i)                  The Permittee shall maintain records of all wagering so the Commission may review such records for any contest including the opening line, subsequent odds fluctuation, the amount and at which window wagers were placed on any betting interest and such other information as may be required. Such wagering records shall be retained by each Permittee and safeguarded for a period of time specified by the Commission. The Commission may require that certain records be  made available to the wagering public at the completion of each contest.

(ii)                The Permittee shall provide the Commission with a list of the licensed individuals afforded access to pari-mutuel records and equipment at the wagering facility.

(c)                Pari-Mutuel Tickets

A pari-mutuel ticket is evidence of a contribution to the pari-mutuel pool operated by the Permittee and is evidence of the obligation of the Permittee to pay to the holder thereof such portion of the distributable amount of the pari-mutuel pool as is represented by such valid pari-mutuel ticket. The Permittee shall cash all valid winning tickets when such are presented for payment during the course of the meeting where sold, and for one full year immediately following the date of purchase.

(i)                  To be deemed a valid pari-mutuel ticket, such ticket shall have been issued by a pari-mutuel ticket matching operated by the Permittee and recorded as a ticket entitled to a share of the pari-mutuel pool, and contain imprinted  information as to:

(A)               The name of the Permittee operating the meeting.

(B)               A unique identifying number or code.

(C)               Identification  of  the  terminal  at  which  the  ticket    was

issued.

(D)               A designation of the performance for which the wagering transaction was issued.

(E)                The contest number for which the pool is conducted.

(F)                The type or types of wagers represented.

(G)               The number or numbers representing the betting interest for which the wager is recorded.

(H)               The amount or amounts of the contributions to the pari- mutuel pool or pools for which the ticket is evidence.

(ii)                No pari-mutuel ticket recorded or reported as previously paid, cancelled, or non-existent shall be deemed a valid pari-mutuel ticket by the Permittee. The Permittee may withhold payment and refuse to cash any pari-mutuel ticket deemed not valid, except as provided in rule (d) of these general provisions.

(d)               Pari-Mutuel Ticket Sales

(i)                  Pari-mutuel tickets shall not be sold by anyone other than a Permittee licensed to conduct pari-mutuel wagering.

(ii)                No pari-mutuel tickets may be sold on a live pari-mutuel event for which wagering has already been closed and no Permittee shall be responsible for ticket sales entered into but not completed by issuance of a ticket before the totalisator is closed for wagering on such contest.

(iii)              Claims pertaining to a mistake on an issued or unissued ticket must be made by the bettor prior to leaving the seller's window.

(iv)              Payment on winning pari-mutuel wagers shall be made on the basis of the order of finish as purposely posted and declared "official". Any subsequent change in the order of finish or award of purse money as may result from a subsequent ruling by the stewards or Commission shall in no way affect the pari-mutuel payoff.  If  an error in the posted order of finish or payoff figures is discovered, the official order of finish or payoff prices may be corrected and an announcement concerning the change shall be made to the public.

(v)                The Permittee shall not satisfy claims on lost, mutilated, or altered pari-mutuel tickets without authorization of the Commission.

(vi)              The Permittee shall have no obligation to enter a wager into a betting pool if unable to do so due to equipment failure.

(vii)            A pari-mutuel ticket shall not be sold to a licensed jockey.

(e)                Advance Performance Wagering

No Permittee shall permit wagering to begin more than one hour before scheduled post time of the first contest of a performance unless it has first obtained the authorization of the Commission.

(f)                 Claims for Payment from Pari-Mutuel Pool

At a designated location, a written, verified claim for payment from a pari- mutuel pool shall be accepted by the Permittee in any case where the Permittee has withheld payment or has refused to cash a pari-mutuel wager. The claim shall be made on such form as approved by the Commission, and the claimant shall make such claim under penalty of perjury. The original of such claim shall be forwarded to the Commission within 48 hours.

(i)                  In the case of a claim made for payment of a mutilated pari- mutuel ticket which does not contain the total imprinted elements required in section c,

(i)     of these general provisions, the Permittee shall make a recommendation to accompany the claim forwarded to the Commission as to whether or not the mutilated ticket has sufficient elements to be positively identified as a winning ticket.

(ii)                In the case of a claim made for payment on a pari-mutuel wager, the Commission shall adjudicate the claim and may order payment thereon from the pari-mutuel pool or by the Permittee, or may deny the claim, or may make such other order as it may deem proper.

(g)                Payment for Errors

If an error occurs in the payment amounts for pari-mutuel wagers which are cashed or entitled to be cashed; and as a result of such error the pari-mutuel pool involved in the error is not correctly distributed among winning ticket holders, the following shall apply:

(i)                  Verification is required to show that the amount of the commission, the amount in breakage, and the amount if payoffs is equal to the total gross pool. If the amount of the pool is more than the amount used to calculate the payoff, the underpayment shall be added to the corresponding pool of the next contest. If underpayments are discovered after the close of the meeting, the underpayment shall

be held in an interest-bearing account approved by the Commission until being added, together with accrued interest, to the corresponding pool of the next meet.

(ii)                Any claim not filed with the Permittee within 30 days, inclusive of the date on which the underpayment was publicly announced, shall be deemed waived; and the Permittee shall have no further liability therefore.

(iii)              In the event the error results in an overpayment to winning wagers, the Permittee shall be responsible for such payment.

A summary explanation of pari-mutuel wagering and each type of betting pool offered shall be published in the program for every wagering performance. The rules of racing relative to each type of pari-mutuel pool offered must be prominently displayed on Permittee grounds available upon request through Permittee representatives.

(A)               In case of a coupled entry, if one of the jockeys riding the entry weighs in short of weight by more than two (2) pounds and his mount is disqualified in consequence of short weight, no refund shall be made unless the other portion of the entry is also disqualified for short weight in which case all  money  wagered on the entry disqualified shall be deducted from the pool and be refunded.  This rule applies with equal effect to the field.

(iv)              If a race is cancelled by the Stewards after wagering begins on  that race, all money wagered on that race shall be refunded.

The Starter shall be the sole judge of what horses are prevented from starting in a race through failure of the gates to open.

(i)                  Contestants coupled in wagering as a coupled entry or mutuel field shall be considered part of a single betting interest for the purpose of price calculations and distribution of pools.

If all contestants within a coupled entry or mutuel field are scratched, then tickets on such betting interests shall be refunded, notwithstanding other provisions of  these rules.

(ii)                For the purpose of price calculations only, coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be calculated as a single finisher, using the finishing position of the leading contestant in that coupled entry or mutuel field to determine order of placing. This rule shall apply to all circumstances, including situations involving a dead heat, except as otherwise provided by these rules.

(iv)              In determining whether to approve an interstate common pool which does not include the host track, the Commission shall consider and may approve use of a bet type which is not utilized at the host track, application of a takeout rate not in effect at the host track, or other factors which are presented to the Commission.

(v)                The content and format of the visual display of racing and wagering information at facilities in other jurisdictions where wagering is permitted in the interstate common pool need not be identical to the similar information permitted or required to be displayed under these rules.

(c)                Host State Participation in Merged Pools

(i)                  With the prior approval of the Commission, an Permittee licensed to conduct pari-mutuel wagering may determine that one or more of its contest be utilized for pari-mutuel wagering at guest facilities in other states, and may also determine that pari-mutuel pools in guest state be combined with corresponding wagering pools established by it as the host track or comparable wagering pools established by two or more states.

(ii)                Where takeout rates in the merged pool are not identical, the net price calculation shall be the method by which the differing takeout rates are applied.

(iii)              The Commission shall approve agreements made between the Permittee and other participants in interstate common pools governing the distribution of breakage between the jurisdictions.

(iv)              Any contract for interstate common pools entered into by the Permittee shall contain a provision to the effect that if, for any reason, it becomes impossible to successfully merge the bets placed in another state into the interstate common pool formed by the Permittee, or if, for any reason, the Commission's or the Permittee's representative determines that attempting to effect transfer of pool data from the guest state may endanger the Permittee's wagering pool, the Permittee shall have no liability for any measures taken which may result in the guest's wagers not being accepted into the pool.

(d)               Takeout Rates in Interstate Common Pools

(i)                  With the prior approval of the Commission, aPermittee wishing to participate in an interstate common pool may change its takeout rate (within the limits permitted by state law) so as to achieve a common takeout rate with all other participants in the interstate common pool.

(ii)                A Permittee wishing to participate in an interstate common pool may request that the Commission approve a methodology whereby host and guest states with different takeout rates for corresponding pari-mutuel pools may effectively and equitably combine wagers from the different states into an interstate common  pool.

Section 4. Calculation of Payoffs and Distribution of Pools - Live Events & Live

Simulcast Events.

(a)                General

(i)                  All permitted pari-mutuel wagering pools shall be separately and independently calculated and distributed. Takeout 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 the winning wagers.

(ii)                For each wagering pool, the amount wagered on the winning 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.

(iii)              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 interest - refunds

net pool= gross pool x (1 - percent 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 PRICE SPLIT(PLACE POOL)

Profit is net pool less gross amount bet on all place finisher.  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.

Net price calculation procedure: SINGLE PRICE POOL (WIN POOL)

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

* for each source:

net pool= gross pool x (1 - percent 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:

unbroken $1 price = $1 unbroken base price x (1 - percent takeout) 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.

(iv)              If a profit split results in only one covered winning betting interest or combinations it shall be calculated the same as a single price pool.

(v)                Minimum payoffs and the method used for calculating breakage shall be established by the Commission.

(vi)              The individual pools outlined in these rules may be given alternative names by each Permittee, provided prior approval is obtained from the Commission.

(b)               Win Pools

(i)                  The amount wagered on the betting interest which finishes first is deducted from the net pool, the balance remaining betting 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.

(ii)                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.

(iii)              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 interests, the Win pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

WIN POOL

(c)                Place Pools

(i)                  The amounts wagered to Place on the first two betting interests  to finish are deducted from the net pool, the balance 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.

(ii)                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 finished 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 not 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.

(iii)              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 interests, the Place pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

(iv)              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 interest, the Place pool is divided with one-half (1/2) of the profit distributed to Place wagers on the betting interest finish first and the remainder is distributed equally amongst Place wagers on those betting interest involved in the dead heat for second.

(d)               Show Pools

(i)                  The amounts wagered to Show on the first three betting interests to finish are deducted from the net pool, the balance 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.

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

(e)                Double Pools

(i)                  The Double requires section of the first-place finisher in each of two specified contests.

(ii)                The net Double 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 selection finished first in each of the two contest; 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 finished 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.

(iii)              If  there  is  a  dead  heat  for  first  in  either  of  the  two contests

The broken consolation price is multiplied by the dollar value of wagers on the winner of the first contest combined  with the scratched betting interest to obtain the consolation payoff. Breakage is not utilized 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 consolation payoff calculated as a profit split.

(vii)            If either of the Double contests are 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.

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 the greatest number of the first-place finishers selected is one (1), the major and minor shares are combined for distribution as a single price pool.  If there are no winning wagers, the pool is refunded.

(E)                Method 5, Pick (n) with Minor Pool and No Carryover: The major share of net Pick (n) pool 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 distributed to those who selected the first- place finisher in the second greatest number of Pick (n) contest, based upon the official

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 winning combination.

(v)                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".

Such distribution shall include the portion ordinarily retained for the Pick (n) carryover but  not the carryover from previous performances.

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

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

(ix)              Should the Pick (n) carryover be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance in 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 designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

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 performance so designated by the Commission.

(xi)              With the written approval of the Commission, the Permittee may contribute to the Pick (n) carryover a sum of money up to the amount of any designated cap.

(xii)            Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered  on  specific  combinations, 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.

(xiii)           The Permittee may suspend, for a specific performance, previously-approved Pick (n) wagering with the prior approval of the Commission. 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 or events.

(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 interest in the official order of finish for that contest, as well as the first two finishers in the alternate Quinella Double contest; otherwise

(B)               As a single pool to those who selected the first two finishers in each of the two Quinella Double contests; but if there are no such wagers, then

(C)               As a profit split to those who selected the first two finishers in either of the two Quinella Double contests; but if there are no such wagers on one of those contests, then

(D)               As a single price pool to those who selected the first two finishers in the one covered Quinella Double contest; but if there were no such wagers, then

(E)                The entire pool shall be refunded on Quinella Double wagers for those contests.

(iii)              If there is a dead heat for first in either of the two Quinella Double contests involving:

(A)               Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Quinella Double pool shall be distributed to those selecting the coupled entry or mutuel field combined with the next separate betting interest in the official order of finish for that contest.

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 consolation 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 interest in the second contest to obtain the consolation payoff.

(i)                  The Twin Trifecta requires selection of the first three finishers, in their exact order, in each of two designated contests. Each winning ticket for the first Twin Trifecta contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the second Twin Trifecta contest in order to remain eligible for the second-half Twin Trifecta pool. Such tickets may be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second Twin Trifecta contest. Winning first-half Twin Trifecta wagers will receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff.

(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 Twin Trifecta pool shall be refunded on Twin Trifecta wagers for that contests and the second-half shall be cancelled.

(iv)              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 second-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.

(v)                Winning tickets from the first-half of the Twin Trifecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first three finishers of the second-half of the Twin Trifecta.  The second-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 carryover 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 performance.

(vi)              If a winning first-half Twin Trifecta ticket is not presented 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.

(ix)              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 the contest as a single price pool, but not the Twin Trifecta carryover.

(xi)              If there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first- or second-half of the Twin Trifecta, all Twin Trifecta 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 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.

If there are no such tickets, the net Twin Trifecta pool shall be distributed as described in subsection (iii) of the Twin Trifecta rules.

(xiv)           The Twin Trifecta carryover may be capped at a designated level approval by the Commission so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Twin Trifecta 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 percent of the net Twin Trifecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of the first-half of the Twin Trifecta pool.

(xv)            A written request for permission to distribute the Twin Trifecta carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Commission. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be  derived and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

(xvi)           Should the Twin Trifecta carryover be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the following precedence will be followed in determining winning tickets for the second-half of the Twin Trifecta after completion 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

(E)                As a single price pool to  holders of  outstanding   first-half

winning tickets.

(xvii)         Contrary to subsection (iv) 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 betting 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 Trifecta, all first-half tickets will become winners and will receive 100 percent of that day's net Twin Trifecta pool and any existing Twin Trifecta carryover as a single price pool.

(xviii)       The Twin Trifecta carryover shall be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

(A)               Upon written approval from the Commission as provided  in subsection (xv) of the Twin Trifecta rules.

(B)               Upon written approval from the Commission 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.

(xix)           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 Commission. 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 Commission.

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

(xxi)           The Permittee must obtain written approval from the Commission 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 Commission.

Such tickets may be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second Tri- Superfecta 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.

(ii)                After wagering closes for the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta 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.

(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 wagers for that contest and the second-half shall be cancelled.

(iv)              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 second-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.

(v)                Winning tickets from the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four finishers of the second-half of the Tri- Superfecta.

(A)               As a single price pool, including any existing carryover 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.

(vi)              If a winning first-half Tri-Superfecta ticket is not presented 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.

(vii)            Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be prohibited in Tri- Superfecta contests.

(viii)          Should a betting interest in the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta be scratched, those Tri-Superfecta tickets including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.

(ix)              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.

(x)                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.

(xi)              If there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first- or second-half of the Tri-Superfecta, all Tri-Superfecta 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.

(xii)            If either of the Tri-Superfecta contests are cancelled prior to the first Tri-Superfecta contest, or the first Tri-Superfecta 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 cancelled.

(xiii)           If the second-half Tri-Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared "no contest", all exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning Tri-Superfecta tickets shall be entitled to the net Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool, but not the Tri-Superfecta carryover. If there are no such tickets, the net Tri- Superfecta pool shall be distributed as described in subsection (iii) of the Tri-Superfecta rules.

(xiv)           The Tri-Superfecta carryover may be capped at a designated level approved by the Commission so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Tri-Superfecta 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 percent of the net Tri- Superfecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of the first- half of the Tri-Superfecta pool.

(xv)            A written request for permission to distribute the Tri-Superfecta as a carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Commission. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

(xvi)           Should the Tri-Superfecta carryover be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the following precedence will be followed in determining winning 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 holders of valid exchange tickets.

(E)                As a single price pool to  holders of  outstanding   first-half

winning tickets.

(xvii)         Contrary to subsection (iv) of the Tri-Superfecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute Tri-Superfecta carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those combinations selecting the greatest number of betting 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

such 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 percent of that day's net Tri-Superfecta pool and any existing Tri-Superfecta carryover as a single price pool.

(xviii)       The Tri-Superfecta carryover shall be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

(A)               Upon written approval from the Commission as provided  in subsection (xv) of the Tri-Superfecta rules.

(B)               Upon written approval from the Commission 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.

(xix)           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 Commission. 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 designated by the Commission.

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

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

(p)               Twin Superfecta Pools

(i)                  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 Superfecta contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the second Twin Superfecta contest in order to remain eligible for the second-half Twin Superfecta pool. Such tickets may be exchanged only at attended tickets 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.

(ii)                After wagering closes for the first-half of the Twin Superfecta 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.

(iii)              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.

(iv)              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 second-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.

(v)                Winning tickets from the first-half of the Twin Superfecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four finishers of the second-half of the Twin Superfecta. The second-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 carryover 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.

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

(vii)            Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be prohibited in Twin Superfecta contests.

(viii)          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.

(ix)              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.

(x)                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 outstanding 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.

(xi)              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 finishing in any dead-heated position, shall be a winner.  In the case of a dead heat occurring:

(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.

(xii)            If either of the Twin Superfecta contests are 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 Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second-half shall be cancelled.

(xiii)           If the second-half Twin Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared "no contest", all exchange tickets and outstanding 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 3 of the Twin Superfecta rules.

(xiv)           The Twin Superfecta carryover may be capped at a designated level approved by the Commission so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Twin Superfecta 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 percent of the net Twin Superfecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of the first-half of the Twin Superfecta pool.

(xv)            A written request for permission to distribute the Twin Superfecta carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Commission. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

(xvi)           Should the Twin Superfecta carryover be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the following precedence will be followed in determining winning 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.

(xvii)         Contrary to subsection (iv) 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 number 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 selecting the first-, second-, third-place betting interests. If there are no wagers correctly  selecting the first-, second-, 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, the 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 Superfecta, all first-half tickets will become winners and will receive 100 percent of that day's net Twin Superfecta pool and any existing Twin Superfecta carryover as a single price pool.

(xviii)       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 Commission as provided  in subsection (xv) of the Twin Superfecta rules.

(B)               Upon written approval from the Commission 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.

(xix)     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 Commission. 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 designated by the Commission.

(xx)             Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations, 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.

(xxi)           The Permittee must obtain written approval from the Commission concerning the scheduling of Twin 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 Twin Superfecta format require prior approval from the Commission.
