How Do Horse Racing Odds and Payouts Work
Horse racing odds are fluid leading up to the race because they are dictated by the amount of money in the pools. A track official will release the morning lines before every race day. Those morning lines are a projection of where the odds for each horse will finish when the race goes off, and do not have any direct impact on potential payouts. Using those morning lines as a starting point, as more money comes in on certain horses, their odds will go down. Horses that aren’t attracting a lot of money in the win pool will have their odds go up. Those odds will remain fluid all the way up until the moment the gates open, and the race begins.
The most important thing to note is that the odds/payout you will receive are based on when the race starts, not when you place the bet. If you bet on a horse at 5-to-1 three minutes before the race and he goes off at 3-to-1, you’re going to get paid based on those 3-to-1 odds. Conversely, if you bet on a horse at 5-to-1 and he goes off at 8-to-1, you’re looking at a nice increased payout.
The wonderful thing about horse racing is that you can make it as easy, or as complex as you’d like to make it. In its simplest form, horse racing payouts are dictated by $2 win bets. If you make a $2 win bet on a horse that goes off at 2-to-1, you would profit $4 and collect $6 with your returned investment. If you make a $2 win bet on a horse that goes off at 5-to-1, you would profit $10 and collect $12.
If you do a multi-race wager (i.e. a Pick 3, Pick 4, etc.), you will know what your potential payout is if your ticket is still alive heading into the last race of the sequence. The track will display “Will Pay” amounts for each horse and for each bet type. You will know exactly what you stand to profit if the last leg of your multi-race wager hits.
