Updated Jul, 20th 2022 Racing & Sports

An exacta is similar to a quinella in the fact you need to select the first and second runners, albeit in the exact order. There are a number of different ways you can arrange your exacta bet.

STANDARD EXACTA: A standard exacta is where a punter must get the first two placegetters across the line in correct order.

BOX EXACTA: A box exacta allows you to select as many runners in the race as you wish to fill first and second positions. The more runners you select, the more winning combinations you will have however that said, the cost of your ticket will increase with each combination.

BANKER EXACTA: A banker exacta is ideal for those confident a particular horse will be winning however are unsure just which runner will finish second. It allows you to have one horse to finish first while selecting multiple runners to potentially fill second place.
