exacta

First-second race bet

An exacta is a bet in horse racing where you must pick the first two finishers in exact order.

If you bet an exacta on horses 3 and 7, horse 3 must win and horse 7 must place second for you to collect.

The term extends to other racing sports like greyhound racing.

Exactas pay better than simple win bets because they're harder to hit.

I hit the exacta and walked away with $400.
