I'm pretty sure that blue means that the potential payout is supposed to return a positive expectancy.

From what I've seen, the quinella screen only activates when there's an actual quinella pool at the track.

The values on the upper right chunk of the Quinella screen are the current Quinella payoffs. The values on the lower left chunk represent an 'equivalent Quinella' payoff calculated by 'dutching' the current exacta payoffs and calculating the return for each $2 bet.

The 'equivalent' payoffs are shown in red when the combinations are bet significantly more in the exacta pools than in the quinella pools, and in blue when the combinations are bet significantly more in the quinella pools than in the exacta pools. So, those payoffs displayed in red indicate that a quinella bet is currently a better bet than a 'dutched' exacta box.
