TwitterFacebookReddit

The Daily Double bet is picking sets of horses to finish first in two different races. This bet improves your chances of winning because 1 or more horses can be chosen for each race.

Can I make a Daily Double Box Bet?
Daily Double Box bets are not possible because the bettor only makes choices for first position. Box bets are for two or more finishing positions.

The Daily Double “Key” Concept

Keying means selecting a set of horses to finish in a certain position. Daily Doubles are for first position in two different races. That means 2 keys must be made for each Daily Double Wheel.

Start with the first race key. Select 1 or more horses. For example, suppose horses 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 are racing.
Make the second race key. Select 1 or more horses. For example, suppose horses 3,4,5,6,7 are racing.

Example 1st Race 1st Horse Key is: Horses 4 & 2

That means horses 4 or 2 must finish first in race #1. You can only win if 4 or 2 finish first.

Example 2nd Race 2nd Horse Key is: Horses 3,5,7

That means horses 3, 5 or 7 must finish first in race #2. You can only win if horses 3, 5 or 7 finish first.

Daily Double Wheel Bets Cost $1

Consider the following example. We’ve keyed horses into the each race’s first position. Daily Doubles cost $1 times number of combinations.

Daily Double Wheel Cost Calculation: (Number first key horses x Number second key horses) x (Cost per combination)

Example 1: $1 Daily Double Wheel

Horses 12 and 7 are your first key.
Horses 8, 4 and 13 are your second key.
(2 horses x 3 horses) x $1 cost = $6
