Carryover the key portion of it. NO consos so 82% carries to next day if it goes unhit. $100,000 guarantee should generate some interest.

They do something similar at the Colonial Downs OTB's, although it is done as a free contest. They pick 3 consecutive races at 1 track. In the first contest race, you have to hit the exacta, but you can only box 3 horses. In the next race, you have to hit the trifecta only boxing 4 horses and the final race you have to hit the super boxing 5 horses. The prize is $100. If nobody wins, the $100 carryovers to the next week. The last time I was there, the carryover had grown to $3200. Pretty good change for a free contest, just a difficult bet to hit.

Great. Another lotto bet. Might as well just light your money on fire and go home if you are going to play this mess. Of course if they would have made it a dime and at 15% takeout then they could have raised take on their other bets and drastically increrased handle.

They should make a new wager where you can bet on the final time of a race down to the 1/100 of a second.
It would involve some skill, it would attract some sucker money, and the payoffs would be good.
