Today's SE - Lindesberg Horse Racing Picks

Allowance Race

A race with non-claiming conditions set by the racing secretary. They are meant to be a step down from stakes racing.

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.

Scratch

A horse is a scratch when injury or other necessity causes it to be withdrawn from the race.
