Bet Type:	Description:
Win:	Your horse needs to be the first one to cross the finish line.
Place:	Your horse must finish either first, second, or third. In races with five to seven runners, no payouts are made for third place (indicated as "NTD" or No Third Dividend); for races with four or fewer runners, only bets on the winning horse are accepted.
Each-Way:	A combination of Win and Place bets entails that your horse must either win or finish in one of the placed positions. An Each-way bet of $5 means a $5.00 wager for both Win and Place, resulting in a total bet cost of $10.
