3769-13-16. Dead heats in the win pool

(A) If two or more horses finish in a dead heat for first position, the amounts of money wagered on such horses in the win pool shall be deducted from the net win pool to determine the profit, which shall be divided into as many equal parts as there are horses in the dead heat. Each part shall be divided by the amount wagered on one of said horses to determine the profit per dollar, to which profit the wager shall be added in totaling the payoff. In the event that no money is wagered in the win pool on one of such horses, the remaining class or classes of such purchasers shall share in a similar distribution of the net win pool.

(B) If two parts of an entry or field finish in a dead heat for first position, the pool shall be calculated as a win pool.
