How can I bet on Alaskan dog mushing?

You can bet on a dog race if the organisers are not for profit (e.g: you can’t organize a race specifically for the purpose of betting on it). The Iditarod Trail is one such race. If you’re over 18 you can buy an entry for $10, and pick who you think will win, how many dogs they will finish with and how fast they’re going to finish. The pot is split as 40% for the winner of the trifecta bet, 40% to Iditarod and the remaining 20% is split between the top 20 mushers.
