WHAT THE ODDS MEAN

The odds do not represent each horse's chances of winning, but what bettors think those chances are, based on how they actually bet. Odds are based on the WIN pool only. The lower the odds on the tote board, the better the chances of that horse winning the race, in the estimation of the betting public. The odds are set by the amount of

money the public bets on each horse.
