Takeout Rates

There's a lot of discussion re these. I'm not sure they really affect the $2 bettors. There's also a lot of misinformation being thrown around on other forums.

Here's the chart:

The money taken out of the betting pools is used to fund purses and track operating costs. It is always preferable to wager at tracks with a lower takeout in the same way that it is preferable to shop in store with lower prices or a state with lower taxes.
