5.a. The Trifecta dividend shall be computed based on the unit of P1.00 by dividing the Trifecta net dividend pool by the total amount of bets on the Trifecta winning combination.

The official dividend shall be posted based on the minimum bet of P2.00.

5.b. In a dead heat involving two or more winning combinations, the dividends shall be computed separately by dividing the total gross dividend pool into as many winning combinations with money bets and the quotient thereof shall be used to compute the partial net dividend pool for each part. The partial net dividend pool of each part shall then be divided by the total amount of bets on the winning combination of that corresponding part.

5.c. In case of dead heat, the following procedures shall be followed:

5.c.1. Dead Heat for 1st (2 horses):

For horses 1 and 2, winning combinations shall be 1-2-3 and 2-1-3.

5.d. In the event that one of the winning combinations involved in the dead heat has no money bets (i.e., has not been selected), the total gross dividend pool shall be distributed to the other winning combination(s) involved in the dead heat with money bets. Thereafter, the dividends of the winning combinations selected shall be computed in the same manner as 5.b. above.

5.e. In the event that no winning ticket is sold for the winning combination(s), the net dividend pool shall be carried-over to the net dividend pool of the next Trifecta event.

6. In case of any scratched entry or entries, all bets on said entry or entries shall be refunded.
