In the 2nd Race at Thistledown on Friday, May 10th, Unique Indygo won the race and the winning $2.00 bet was $27.60. However, the $2.00 Exacta paid $24.60. I need help to understand how the winner paid more than the Exacta.

Sparky:

I will go and ask the relevant people when I see them and hopefully return with an answer.

Two different pools. Relatively small amounts of money in each. This results in inefficiency and outcomes like you cite.

Seven horse field with huge favorite running second.

Tiny pools due to the blackout.

Shame because I like this track and for the first time in recent memory they have decent size fields.

We do indeed have decent size fields.

Cannot wait until everywhere can get our signal. We are on Twin Spires, however.
