Today's Hanover Raceway Horse Racing Picks

Across the Board

Refers to betting on a horse to finish first, second, and third to cover any of those scenarios happening during a race

Minus Pool

A pari-mutuel pool – typically a show pool - where one horse is so heavily bet that after deductions there is not enough money left to cover the prescribed minimum on each bet.

Main Track Only

A horse entered for main track only (MTO) is one hoping the weather forecast or track conditions will move the race off the turf course and onto the main track. They are scratched the morning of the race if the conditions stay dry.
