Example: Boxing 5 horses = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 = 120 combinations
The superfecta is popular for big race days like the Kentucky Derby where large fields create opportunities for huge payouts when longshots hit the board.
How Superfecta Boxing Works
A superfecta requires picking horses to finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in exact order. Boxing lets you cover all possible orderings of your selected horses. The number of combinations follows the permutation formula: n!/(n-4)! where n is horses selected.
Example: Boxing 6 horses = 6×5×4×3 = 360 combinations. At $0.10 minimum, total cost is $36.00. If any four of your horses finish 1-2-3-4 in any order, you win.
