How it works
Four steps from card to ticket
- 01
Pick a race
Start with a U.S. classic. From the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes to the Breeders' Cup, choose the race you want to follow.
- 02
Choose a bet type
Win, Place, Show, Exacta, Trifecta and more. Pick the format that matches how you read the race.
- 03
Check the details
Look over the runners, the bet, the stake and the date. Fix anything that looks off before you move on.
- 04
Finish with a partner
You are sent to a licensed operator who confirms and places the bet. We never handle your money.
