Delaware Park lowers takeout for on-track exacta players

Posted: Friday, August 27, 2010 5:01 PM

Players who make the trip to Delaware Park will be rewarded for their efforts if they wager on the exacta in upcoming races.

Beginning September 4, on-track players will be able to wager on the exacta at a reduced rate of 10%. Typically the wager includes a 19% takeout. Off-track players will continue to play at the 19% rate.

According to the track, the reduced on-track takeout will effectively give winning on-track exacta players a bonus of approximately 10% of the payoff.  For example, the return to an on-track player will be approximately $110 for a winning $2 exacta combination with a payout of $100.

“As an industry, we need to be creative and find more ways to enhance the on-track experience,” said Delaware Park Senior Vice President Michael Vild. “We are hoping to attract more horseplayers to Delaware Park by offering the on-track exacta bonus and at the same time reward and encourage our loyal patrons who continue to wager on Delaware Park. We hope that this experiment will be successful so we can continue to offer the bonuses next year and also possibly expand the program to include more wagers.”
