Pick 6

Pick 6 is an exotic type of bet on horse racing. It is considered as the most difficult bet in horse racing and perhaps the most lucrative. You win by selecting the winner of six consecutive races. You must place the bet before the start of the first of the six races.

Most tracks offer nine or ten races per day, usually in the afternoon. Some tracks put the Pick 6 as the first six races, the middle six races, or the last six races. Meetings, or consecutive days of racing at a track, continue for one month or longer in the United States. British meetings are usually only several days in length. Many tracks have carry over pools for the Pick 6 that can grow to as much as a million dollars.

A Pick 6 bettor can "wheel" or select more than one horse in each of the six races. "Wheeling" generally increases your chance of winning, but this also increases the amount of your wager.

To compute the cost of your Pick 6 wager, multiply the number of horses selected in the first race by the number of horses selected on the second race. Then, multiply the product by the number of horses selected on the third race. Next, multiply the product by the number of horses selected on the fourth race. Afterwards, multiply the product by the number of horses selected on the fifth race. Afterwards, multiply the product by the number of horses selected on the sixth race. Finally, multiply the product by the amount you want to wager.
