Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
(a) The daily
					 double is not a parlay and has no connection with or relation to the win,
					 place, and show pools shown on the tote board. All daily double tickets shall
					 be calculated in a separate pool.
(b) If any part of a coupled entry or mutuel
					 field is a starter, the association may not refund money wagered under this
					 section to persons wagering on the entry or field, regardless of whether any
					 part of the entry or field failed to start. If either race in the daily double
					 ends in a dead heat for first place, the pool shall be calculated as a place
					 pool in proportion to the number of animals in the dead heat.
(c) If no ticket is sold that correctly
					 selects the winner of both races of the daily double, the entire daily double
					 pool, minus the takeout and the breakage, shall be distributed equally to the
					 holders of tickets which include the winner of either of the daily double
					 races.
(d) If no ticket is sold
					 including the winner of the first race of the daily double, the entire daily
					 double pool, minus the takeout and the breakage, shall be distributed equally
					 to the holders of tickets which include the winner of the second race of the
					 daily double. If no ticket is sold including the winner of the second race of
					 the daily double, the entire daily double pool, minus the takeout and the
					 breakage, shall be distributed equally to the holders of tickets which include
					 the winner of the first race of the daily double.
(e) If no ticket is sold including the winner
					 of either race of the daily double, the entire daily double pool, minus the
					 takeout and the breakage, shall be distributed equally to holders of tickets
					 which include the animals finishing second in the two races of the daily
					 double.
(f) If the first race of a
					 daily double is canceled, the association shall provide a complete refund of
					 the daily double pool. If the second race of a daily double is canceled after
					 the first race has been completed, the entire daily double pool, minus the
					 takeout and the breakage, shall be distributed, in proportion of the amount
					 wagered on those combinations including the winner of the first race of the
					 daily double, to holders of tickets which include the winner of the first race
					 of the daily double in combination with any animal in the second
					 race.
(g) If before the first race
					 of a daily double is run, an animal entered in either race is scratched or
					 otherwise prevented from racing, all money wagered on the affected animal shall
					 be deducted from the daily double pool and refunded to the holders of tickets
					 on the affected animal.
(h) If
					 after the first race of a daily double is run, an animal entered in the second
					 race is scratched or otherwise prevented from racing, a consolation daily
					 double shall be awarded. All tickets which select an animal in the first race
					 with the affected animal in the second race shall be deducted from the daily
					 double pool and this amount shall be placed in a consolation pool. The
					 consolation pool shall be distributed as a straight pool to the holders of
					 tickets who correctly selected the winner of the first race with the affected
					 animal in the second race.
(i) If
					 either race in a daily double ends in a dead heat, the total daily double pool
					 shall be distributed in the same manner as a place pool.
(j) If the daily double pool cannot otherwise
					 be distributed in accordance with this section, the money in the daily double
					 pool shall be carried forward and added to the next consecutive daily double
					 pool.
