Parimutuel betting

Wagering on horse races and Kentucky Derby odds is a tad different than placing your standard sports bet. Instead of betting against the sportsbook, you are betting among other bettors. This is a “mutuel bet,” hence the parimutuel tag. 

Payouts for races like the Kentucky Derby depend on how many bettors bet on the race and how many bettors correctly picked the winner.
