$1 Exacta Boxes Better than $2 Quinella Boxes?

Quote:
But more and more tracks now offer $1 Exactas, and in the long run, a horseplayer is probably better off playing Exacta boxes as opposed to playing the Quinella.

Question: Which tracks are offering $1 exactas and $2 Quinellas?

For example, Churchill's exactas are still $2. (maybe $1 online at others?) Usually have to wait for big races to get both exacta and quinella pools.

I tend to bet quinella boxes because they're cheaper and occasionally pay better.

This formula is helpful for determining whether a quinella or exacta box is better for 2 horses.

Q/E1 + Q/E2 <> 1, values >1 mean quinella is better.

Q = quinella, E1 = exacta, E2 = exacta box (reverse of E1)

Assuming a $15 quinella payout and $20 and $50, respectively for each exacta:

$15/$20 + $15/$50 = 1.05 > 1 = Go with Quinella in this case.

But having the ability to shop both bets is critical. Is online better for this?
