Trifecta Bets

With this bet you must pick the first three finishing horses in the order of their finish. In other words, you must pick the horse that wins, the horse that finishes second and the horse that finishes third.

The simplest form of this wager is the straight trifecta, which is a single combination of the first three finishers. The minimum bet for a Straight Trifecta is $2. A trifecta is not offered in all races at all tracks.

NOTE: This wager is also called the “triple” at some tracks.

Trifecta Box

The trifecta box has a $1 minimum bet per combination — $6 minimum total cost. You can box three or more horses on a single ticket and wager $1 (or more) on each combination.

The following examples are for a $1 trifecta box:

3 horse box (6 combinations) Cost $6
4 horse box (24 combinations) Cost $24
5 horse box (60 combinations) Cost $60
6 horse box (120 combinations) Cost $120
7 horse box (210 combinations) Cost $210

Trifecta Key

The key wager requires the Key horse to finish FIRST with any combination of two or more horses finishing second and third. For example, if your key horse is #5 and your other horses are #’s 2, 4 and 6, you will win if #5 finishes first and two of your other three horses finish second and third.

Trifecta Full Wheel

You may select one or two horses to finish in a given position and combine your selection with all possible combinations. The number of combinations will vary according to the total number of horses in the race.

Number of horses in race: 8 9 10 11 12
Cost in this example: $42 $56 $72 $90 $110

The trifecta part wheel is offered at a $1 minimum bet per combination — $2 minimum total cost. It is now possible to make a trifecta wager coupling one or more horses to finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
