Decimal odds explained\n\n For example, aR$100 bet made at decimal odds of 3.00 would returnR$300 ($100 x 3.00):R$200 in profit and the originalR$100 amount risked. AR$100 bet made at decimal odds of 1.50 would returnR$150:R$50 in profit and the originalR$100 amount risked.

For example, 3/1 odds mean you profit three times the amount you wagered. AR$1 bet at 3/1 would pay outR$4 in total, or aR$3 profit and yourR$1 original wager. Conversely, 1/3 odds mean you profit a third of what you wagered. AR$30 bet on 1/3 odds would returnR$40 total, or aR$10 profit and yourR$10 original wager.

AR$1 trifecta bet on Mage, Two Phil's and Angel of Empire paidR$928.36 and a Superfecta (predicting the correct order of finish of the first four horses) paidR$15,643.60 for aR$1 bet. Follow The Athletic's staff for postrace updates and analysis.
