andfor the purpose of determining the number of horses that finish a race in a dead heat in any position and of determining any winning bet, horses from the same entry or mutuel field are considered to be one horse.SOR/98-242, s. 4An association shall calculate the pay-out price in respect of winning quinella, exactor and triactor bets determined under sections 140 to 142 as follows:where there is one combination of horses, by dividing the net pool by the value of the winning quinella, exactor or triactor bets in which that combination is selected; andwhere there are two or more combinations of horses, bydeducting the value of the winning quinella, exactor or triactor bets in which those combinations are selected from the net pool to determine a calculating pool,dividing the calculating pool equally between or among those combinations,dividing each combination’s portion of the calculating pool by the sum of the winning quinella, exactor or triactor bets in which the combination is selected, andadding $1 to each quotient obtained under subparagraph (iii).SOR/98-242, s. 4Where two or more horses finish a race in a dead heat in first position, a winning quinella bet is one in which any two of those horses are selected in either order.Where one horse finishes a race in first position and one or more horses finish the race in second position, a winning quinella bet is one in which the horse that finishes the race in first position and any horse that finishes the race in second position are selected, in either order.In the situation described in subsection (1), where a winning quinella bet cannot be determined because no bet is made on the horses referred to in that subsection, a winning quinella bet is one in which any horse that finishes the race in a dead heat in first position is selected as first or second.In the situation described in subsection (2), where a winning quinella bet cannot be determined because no bet is made on the horses referred to in that subsection, a winning quinella bet is one in which the horse that finishes a race in first position or any horse that finishes the race in second position is selected as first or second.Where one horse finishes a race, a winning quinella bet is one in which that horse is selected as first or second.For the purpose of calculating the pay-out price under section 139,combinations of the same horses in the winning quinella bets determined under subsection (1) or (2) are considered to be one combination notwithstanding the order in which those horses are selected in each bet; andcombinations of horses in the winning quinella bets determined under subsection (3), (4) or (5) in which the same horse is selected as first or second are considered to be one combination.SOR/98-242, s. 4Where two or more horses finish a race in a dead heat in first position, a winning exactor bet is one in which any two of those horses are selected in either order.Where one horse finishes a race in first position and one or more horses finish the race in second position, a winning exactor bet is one in which the horse that finishes the race in first position and any horse that finishes the race in second position are selected in the order of finish.In the situation described in subsection (1) or (2), where a winning exactor bet cannot be determined because no bet is made on the horses referred to in that subsection, a winning exactor bet is one in which a horse that finishes the race in first position is selected as first.Where one horse finishes a race, a winning exactor bet is one in which that horse is selected as first.For the purpose of calculating the pay-out price under section 139,combinations of the same horses in the winning exactor bets determined under subsection (1) are considered to be different combinations unless those horses are selected in the same order in each bet; andcombinations of horses in the winning exactor bets determined under subsection (3) or (4) in which the same horse is selected as first are considered to be one combination.SOR/98-242, s. 4Where three or more horses finish a race in a dead heat in first position, a winning triactor bet is one in which three of those horses are selected in any order.Where two horses finish a race in a dead heat in first position and one or more horses finish the race in second position, a winning triactor bet is one in whichthe horses that finish the race in a dead heat in first position are selected as first and second, in either order; andany horse that finishes the race in second position is selected as third.Where one horse finishes a race in first position and two or more horses finish the race in second position, a winning triactor bet is one in whichthe horse that finishes the race in first position is selected as first; andtwo horses that finish the race in second position are selected as second and third, in either order.Where three or more horses finish a race, and one horse finishes the race in first position and one horse finishes the race in second position, a winning triactor bet is one in which the horse that finishes the race in first position, the horse that finishes the race in second position and any horse that finishes the race in third position are selected in the order of finish.In the situation described in subsection (1) or (2), where a winning triactor bet cannot be determined because no bet is made on the horses referred to in that subsection, a winning triactor bet is one in which two horses that finish the race in a dead heat in first position are selected as first and second, in either order.In the situation described in subsection (3) or (4), where a winning triactor bet cannot be determined because no bet is made on the horses referred to in that subsection, a winning triactor bet is one in which the horse that finishes the race in first position and any horse that finishes the race in second position are selected in the order of finish.In the situation described in subsection (5) or (6), where a winning triactor bet cannot be determined because no bet is made on the horses referred to in that subsection, a winning triactor bet is one in which any horse that finishes the race in first position is selected as first.Where two horses finish a race in a dead heat, a winning triactor bet is one in which those two horses are selected as first and second, in either order.Where two horses finish a race other than in a dead heat, a winning triactor bet is one in which those two horses are selected as first and second, in the order of finish.Where one horse finishes a race, a winning triactor bet is one in which that horse is selected as first.For the purpose of calculating the pay-out price under section 139,combinations of the same horses in the winning triactor bets, determined under subsection (1), (2) or (3), are considered to be different combinations unless those horses are selected in the same order in each bet;combinations of horses in the winning triactor bets, determined under subsection (5), (6), (8) or (9), in which the same horses are selected as first and secondin the same order, are considered to be one combination, ornot in the same order, are considered to be different combinations; andcombinations of horses in the winning triactor bets, determined under subsection (7) or (10), in which the same horse is selected as first, are considered to be one combination.SOR/98-242, s. 4Other Pari-Mutuel PoolsIf an association proposes to offer a type of bet that is not described in this Part, the bet may be offered ifthe bet is a pari-mutuel bet described in Chapter 4, under ARCI 004-105 of the document entitled Model Rules of Racing, published by the Association of Racing Commissioners International, as amended from time to time;subject to subsection (2), the bet is in compliance with the Act and any other Act of Parliament or legislature and any regulation made under it;the association provides to the Executive Director a description of the proposed type of bet;the type of bet meets the requirements of section 15 and is included in the association’s permit;
