PURPOSE: This rule sets forth the definitions and calculations of the quinella pool.

1. (1) The amount wagered on the winning combination, this being the first two (2) finishers irrespective of which horse finishes first and which horse finishes second, is deducted from the net pool to determine the profit; the profit is divided by the amount wagered on the winning combination, the quotient being the profit per dollar wagered on the winning quinella combination; payoff includes the amount wagered and profit.
2. (2) In the event of a dead heat for first— between horses involving two (2) different betting interests—the net quinella pool is distributed as if no dead heat occurred; if between horses involving three (3) different betting interests, the net quinella pool is distributed as if a show pool and is allocated to wagers combining any of the three (3) horses finishing in a dead heat for first.
3. (3) In the event of a dead heat for second— between horses involving two (2) different betting interests—the net quinella pool is distributed as if a place pool and is allocated to wagers combining the first finisher with either horse finishing in a dead heat for second; if between horses involving three (3) different betting interests, the net quinella pool is distributed as if a show pool and allocated to wagers combining the first horse with each of the three (3) horses finishing in a dead heat for second.
4. (4) In the event horses representing a single betting interest finish first and second, the net quinella pool shall be allocated to wagers combining the single betting interest with the betting interest which finishes third.

5. (5) In the event no quinella ticket is sold combining—

   1. (A) The first finisher with one (1) of the horses finishing in a dead heat for second, then the net quinella pool is allocated to wagers combining the first finisher with the other horse finishing in a dead heat for second;
   2. (B) The first finisher with either of separate betting interest horses finishing in a dead heat for second, then the net quinella pool is allocated to wagers combining the two (2) horses which finished in the dead heat for second; 12 CSR 50-80
   3. (C) The first finisher with either of the separate betting interests finishing in a dead heat for second, or combining the two (2) separate betting interests which finished in a dead heat for second, then the net quinella pool is distributed as if a show pool and is allocated to wagers combining any of the first three (3) finishers with any other betting interest;
   4. (D) The first two (2) finishers, then the net quinella pool shall be distributed as if a place pool and is allocated to wagers combining the first finisher with any other betting interest, and wagers combining the second finisher with any other betting interest; and
   5. (E) Betting interest as would require distribution, then the entire quinella pool shall be refunded upon presentation and surrender of those quinella tickets.
