TYPES OF WAGERS

Once a rarity, exotic wagers are now a popular staple at race tracks. Exotics include any wager involving a combination of two or more horses or races - as opposed to "win", "place" and "show" wagers. Exotic wagering offers the possibility of major rewards with minor investments. It also presents alternative wagering options on races with no clear favorite or on races with a dominant choice. This is a guide to exotic wagering, including types of exotic wagers, how to calculate the cost of the wager and how to call your wager to the mutuel teller. Please choose a category below for more detailed information.
