    (B) Fifty percent (50%) of the twin trifecta pool for that performance only shall be distributed in the following precedence:

      (i) As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first three betting interest; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (ii) As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (iii) As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first and third betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (iv) As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (v) As a single price pool to those whose combination included, in correct sequence, the second and third betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (vi) As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the second-place betting interest; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (vii) As a single price pool to those whose combination correctly selected the third-place betting interest; but if there are no such wagers, then

      (viii) As a single price pool to holders of valid exchange tickets; but if there are no such persons, then

      (ix) As a single price pool to holders of outstanding first-half winning tickets.

(u) The twin trifecta carryover shall be designated for mandatory payout on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:

  (1) on written approval from the executive secretary as provided in subsection (q) of this section;

  (2) on written approval from the executive secretary when there is a change in the carryover cap or when the twin trifecta is discontinued; and

  (3) on the closing performance of the race meeting.

(v) If the twin trifecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding twin trifecta pool of a subsequent race meeting, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the executive secretary. The twin trifecta carryover plus accrued interest shall be carried over and added to the second-half twin trifecta pool of the following race meeting on a date and performance designated by the executive secretary.

(w) The association must obtain written approval from the executive secretary concerning the scheduling and the amount of the cap to be set on the carryover. Any changes to the approved twin trifecta format require prior approval from the executive secretary.
