(1) The quiniela double requires selection of the first 2 finishers, irrespective of order, in each of 2 specified races. Quiniela double tickets shall be purchased for both of the 2 quiniela double races prior to the first of the 2 races, without any exchange of tickets between the first and second races.

(2) The net quiniela double pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:

(a) If animals representing the same wagering interest finish as the first 2 finishers in either race, as a single price pool to those selecting the animals representing the same wagering interest combined with the next separate wagering interest in the official order of finish for that race, as well as the first 2 finishers in the corresponding quiniela double race, otherwise;

(b) As a single price pool to those who selected the first 2 finishers in each of the 2 quiniela double races. If there is no ticket selecting the first 2 finishers in each of the quiniela double races, then;

(c) As a single price pool to those who selected the first 2 finishers in the first quiniela double race. If there is no ticket selecting the first 2 finishers in the first quiniela double race, then;

(d) The entire pool shall be refunded on quiniela double wagers for those races.

(3) If there is a dead heat for first in either of the 2 quiniela double races involving:

(a) Animals representing the same wagering interest, the quiniela double pool shall be distributed to those selecting the animals representing the same wagering interest combined with the next separate wagering interest in the official order of finish for that race.

(b) Animals representing 2 wagering interests, the quiniela double pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

(c) Animals representing 3 or more wagering interests, the quiniela double pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

(4) If there is a dead heat for second in either of the quiniela double races involving animals representing the same wagering interest, the quiniela double pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat occurred.

(5) If there is a dead heat for second in either of the quiniela double races involving animals representing 2 or more wagering interests, the quiniela double pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

(6) If a wagering interest in the first half of the quiniela double is scratched prior to the first quiniela double race being declared official, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched wagering interest shall be deducted from the quiniela double pool and refunded.

(7) If a wagering interest in the second half of the quiniela double is scratched prior to the close of wagering on the first quiniela double race, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched wagering interest shall be deducted from the quiniela double pool and refunded.

(8) If a wagering interest in the second half of the quiniela double is scratched after the close of wagering on the first quiniela double race, all wagers combining the winning combination in the first race with a combination including the scratched wagering interest in the second race shall be allocated a consolation payout. In calculating the consolation payout the net quiniela double pool shall be divided by the total amount wagered on the winning combination in the first race and an unbroken consolation price obtained. The broken consolation price is multiplied by the dollar value of wagers on the winning combination in the first race combined with a combination including the scratched wagering interest in the second race to obtain the consolation payout. Breakage is not declared in this calculation. The consolation payout is deducted from the net quiniela double pool before calculation and distribution of the winning quiniela double payout. In the event of a dead heat involving separate wagering interests, the net quiniela double pool shall be distributed as a profit split.

(9) If either of the quiniela double races is canceled prior to the first quiniela double race, or the first quiniela double race is declared no race, the entire quiniela double pool shall be refunded on quiniela double wagers for those races.

(10) If the second quiniela double race is canceled or declared no race after the conclusion of the first quiniela double race, the net quiniela double pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to wagers selecting the winning combination in the first quiniela double race. If there are no wagers selecting the winning combination in the first quiniela double race, the entire quiniela double pool shall be refunded on quiniela double wagers for those races.
