What does it mean when a horse offers odds of 3-1, or 9-1, or 24-1? The odds simply indicate the perceived chance of that particular horse reaching the winner's circle. A horse listed at 9-1 is expected to lose nine times and win once from 10 attempts (10 being the sum of nine and one), which equates to a 10% chance of victory. A horses offering odds of 3-2 is expected to lose three times and win twice from five attempts, which represents a 40% chance of victory.
The odds also determine the payoffs for win bets. A 6-1 winner will return $6 of profit for every $1 wagered.
