C'est un "couplé ordre" en français Annabelle.

Standout Exacta
This is a bet where you combine the runner you believe will win (your standout) with a number of runners to finish second. To win, your standout runner must finish in the first position with any of your other runners filling second position.

For example, if you combine 1 as a standout to finish first, with 2, 3 and 4 to finish second, you receive three combinations from which you can win the Exacta: 1-2; 1-3; 1-4.
The cost of this standout Exacta is $3 for a $1 investment, much cheaper than a 4 runner boxed Exacta.

Je pense tout de même qu'il faudrait conserver "Exacta" qui est typique des paris internationaux (autrement dit, bien loin de notre PMU de la française des jeux même si le sens y est)
