Horse Racing 101 Betting Tips
Pick 4, Pick 5 and Pick 6 Wagers
Let’s talk about my favorite wagers at the racetrack: the Pick 4, Pick 5 and Pick 6. These are high-risk, high-reward wagers where you have to select winners in four, five or six consecutive races.
Because these bets include so many races, they’re only offered once or twice at each track each day. You can check your DK Horse app to see when these sequences begin.
With the Pick 4 and the Pick 5, the base wager is 50 cents. Most Pick 6 wagers have a base of either 20 cents or one dollar. Just like daily doubles and Pick 3s, you can have more than one horse in each race, but it will increase the cost of your ticket.
These bets are like larger sports parlays where the difficulty is high, but the payouts can be massive.
