Quinella Wheel Betting
See Also: Quinella Bet | Quinella Box Bet

The Quinella Wheel bet involves keying in a horse OR horses into the race's eventual first and second finishing positions. Quinella Wheel betting is much less risky than a straight quinella bet because you are allowed to select more than 2 horses to finish in the top two positions in any order.

The Quinella "Key" Concept

Understanding "keying" horses into your Quinella Wheel is crucial to making a successful bet.

First, start with the first place position. Select a horse or set of horses that can place first in your wager. For example, if horses 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are in a horse race, you could choose any one of the six to place first OR some combination of the six to place first.

Example 1st Horse Key is: Horse 4

This means when the race has finished, if horse 4 places first OR second, your first place quinella wheel key will be successful.

Second, pick your horse or horses that will place second, using the same procedure as the first key. You can pick any of the horses to fill your second and third keys.

Example 2nd Horse Key is: Horses 2, 3, 5

This means when the race has finished, if horse 2 OR horse 3 OR horse 5 places second OR first your second place quinella wheel key will be successful.

Example Winning Combination with our Keys: 4 & 3

Given the keys we created above, a race result of horse 4 placing first and horse 3 placing second, the bet would win.

Example Losing Combination with our Keys: 1 & 5

Given the keys we created above, a race result of horse 1 placing first and horse 5 placing second the bet would lose, because we did not include the 1 horse in our first quinella key.

Quinella Wheel Bets Cost $2 Per Possible Finishing Combination

Consider the following examples, where we've keyed select horses into the first and second place positions; and how much the total bet would cost considering all of the possible finishing combinations.

Example 1: You believe horse 8 will win the race or place second and that horse is your first key. Next, you believe one of horses 16-7-2 will finish second or first and that is your second key. This bet would cost $6.

Finishing 8-16 = $1
Finishing 16-8 = $1

Finishing 8-7 = $1
Finishing 7-8 = $1
Set 3 (Horses 8, 2) = $2
Finishing 8-2 = $1
Finishing 2-8 = $1
Total Wager = $6

Example 2: You believe either horse 5 or 7 will win or place second, follwed by horse 1, 4 or 6 in second place or first place.
