Daily Double -The
daily double involves picking the winning
horse in two consecutive races. All tracks
offer the early daily double which involves
races #1 and #2. Most tracks also offer
a late daily double which is the last two
races of the day. Some tracks also offer
a rolling daily double which is on any two
consecutive races. To win a daily double
you must pick the winning horse in each
of the two races. Combination bets can also
be made on daily doubles.
Double Wheel
When you are confident of a horse winning
either of these two races but are uncertain
of the outcome of the other race, especially
if the horse in which you are confident
has good to excellent odds, you might want
to consider the daily double wheel. In this
bet you bet your key horse with all the
horses in the other race. Your key horse
might be in either of the two races. Tell
the clerk EX. ($2 Daily Double wheel the
5 with ALL) if you are confident in the
#5 horse winning the first of the two races.
But if your key horse is the #3 in the second
of the two races tell the clerk i.e. ($2
Daily Double wheel ALL with 3). The formula
for calculating the cost of the daily double
wheel is simply the number of horses in
the race other than the race containing
your key horse, times the dollar value of
your bet.
EXAMPLE: The race other
than the race containing your key horse
has 10 horses and you wish to make a $2
bet. (2 x 10 = $20)
Daily
Double Part-Wheel
The daily double part-wheel bet is a further
refinement of the daily double wheel bet.
This allows you to exercise your handicapping
skills to eliminate all horses that you
think will not win the race. This will reduce
the size of your investment.
EXAMPLE:
As in the example in the daily double wheel
above you have a key horse in one race and
10 horses in the other race. But you have
decided that only five of the 10 horses
have a chance of winning their race. So,
by doing a daily double part wheel, you
have one horse in combination with five
horses and if you wish to bet a $2 bet your
cost would be (2 x 5 = $10). You just saved
yourself $10 over the full wheel bet and
hopefully you did not throw out the winning
horse. If for example, you decided that
the #5 horse will win the first race of
the double and that either horses #2, #4,
#5, #8 or #9 will win the second race of
the double you would tell the clerk i.e.
($2 Daily Double Part Wheel 5 with 2, 4,
5, 8, 9). NOTE: A $10 daily double part
wheel (5 with 2,4,5,8,9) would cost (10
x 5 = $50).
