Make sure you refer to the horses as their posting numbers and not by name.

Thanks for the heads up

Is Dave okay? I hope he didn't get mobbed at the OTB. I thought he was going to tell me his horses?

Ok, I wanna bet the board on Indy, Dullihan, and Trinneberg...and maybe put a single bet on Hansen to win....how would I do that?

I'm not sure I wanna bet all them, but let me know their numbers while I consider it. Also, if I tell the guy behind the window that I wanna 'bet the board', he'll know that I mean I wanna place a bet in that horse to win 1st, 2nd, and third, right?

That's a waste of $2 when you can get all you need online for free.

Indy is 3.
Dullihan is 5.
Trinneberg is 9.
Hansen is 14.

I really don't know how to do all the trifecta, exacta, etc bets so someone else will have to help out, but if you are going to bet a horse across the board say "I want to place a $2 bet across the board on horse 3". That will be $6 because you are better $2 they will win, $2 they will place and $2 they will show.

I just took this off a website so this might help.

Trifecta
You play three horses. They must come in first, second, and third in EXACT order to collect. This is a $2 minimum wager at most tracks.

Trifecta Key
You play three horses. You chose one horse to win, called the key horse, who must come in first followed by the other two horses second and third in any order to collect. You may play more than two horses in second and third, which means any two of those horses can finish in those positions and you will win. Since this has multiple wagers in combination, it is a $1 minimum wager at most tracks.

Trifecta Box
You play three horses. They must finish first, second, and third in any order to collect. Since this has multiple wagers in combination, it is a $1 minimum wager at most tracks.

Superfecta
You play four horses. They must come in first, second, third, and fourth in EXACT order. This is a $2 minimum wager at most tracks.

Superfecta Box
You play four horses. They must finish first, second, third, and fourth in ANY order. Since this has multiple wagers in combination, it is a $1 minimum wager at most tracks and some even go as low as 10 cents for the minimum!

Superfecta Key

No.. In the derby. I don't know much of anything about the other races.

My bad, I didn't know you meant you wanted to give it a try on one of the earlier races.

Have you seen anyone walking around trying to find winning tickets on the floor? One year I went cash in and there was some guy who must have lost it all on the Derby, with no shame, looking on the floor and going through tickets people threw away hoping to find a winner.

Don't say I want to bet the board. Say I want $x across the board on number x.

I think Prospective is good value a 58-1 in the derby (i know the odds may change) for a couple bucks across the board.
