Today's AU - Muswellbrook Horse Racing Picks

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.

Bolt

A sudden veering to the inside or outside rail, often caused by the horse spooking or shying from something.

Show Wager

Betting on a horse to finish in the first three spots, which pays out the same whether they win or run second or third.
