2. (2) In the event of a dead heat for first involving two (2) different betting interests, in one
3. (1) of the two (2) daily double races, the daily double pool is distributed as if a place pool, with one-half (1/2) the profit allocated to wagers combining the single winner of one
4. (1) daily double race and one (1) of the betting interests involved in the dead heat in the other daily double race, and the other onehalf (1/2) of the profit allocated to wagers combining the single winner of one (1) daily double race and the other betting interest involved in the dead heat in the other daily double race.
5. (3) In the event of dead heats for first involving different betting interests in each of the daily double races, resulting in four (4), six
6. (6) or nine (9) winning combinations the daily double pool is allocated equally to each winning combination.
7. (4) In the event no daily double ticket is sold combining the horse or betting interest which finishes first in one (1) of the daily double races, the daily double pool is distributed as if a win pool with the profit allocated to the wagering combination which includes the betting interest which finished first in one (1) of the daily double races.
8. (5) In the event no daily double ticket is sold combining the betting interests which finished first in both the first and second race of the daily double, then the winning combination for distribution of the daily double profit shall be that combining the betting interests which finished second in each of the daily double races.
9. (6) If after daily double wagering has commenced and a horse which is not a coupled betting interest is excused by the judges or is prevented from racing because of failure of the starting gate in the first race of the daily double, then daily double wagers combining the horse shall be deducted from the daily double pool and refunded upon presentation and surrender of daily double tickets on that race.
10. (7) If prior to closing of the daily double wagering, a scheduled starter in the second half of the daily double which is not a coupled betting interest is excused by the judges, then daily double wagers combining the horse shall be deducted from the daily double pool and refunded upon presentation and surrender of daily double tickets.
11. (8) If after the first race of the daily double has been run and a horse which is not a coupled betting interest by the judges or prevented from racing because of failure of the starting gate in the second race of the daily double is excused, then daily double wagers combining the winner of the first daily double race with the betting interest prevented from racing in the second daily double race shall be allocated consolation payoffs.
12. (9) Consolation daily double payoffs shall be determined by dividing the net daily double pool by the amount wagered combining the winner of the first daily double race with every betting interest scheduled to start in the second daily double race, the quotient being the consolation payoff per dollar wagered. The consolation payoffs shall be deducted from the net daily double pool before calculation and allocation of wagers on the winning daily double combination.

14. (11) If no daily double ticket is sold requiring distribution, then the entire daily double pool shall be refunded upon presentation and surrender of those daily double tickets.
