Delaware Park will experiment with an ontrack-only pari-mutuel takeout reduction from Sept. 4 through Nov. 6, closing day of the meet.
The “bonus,” as the track calls it, will be for exacta wagers only. The regular takeout rate of 19% will drop to
10% on wagers made at the Stanton, Del., facility. The standard 19% takeout rate will remain in effect for exacta wagers made at other locations.
“As an industry, we need to be creative and find more ways to enhance the ontrack experience,” Delaware Park senior vice president Michael Vild said in a statement. “We are hoping to attract more horseplayers to Delaware Park by offering the ontrack exacta bonus, and at the same time reward and encourage our loyal patrons who continue to wager on Delaware Park.
