AAA is the actual bet and return on his bets
The 5 horse won and paid $11.00 and $4.80
The favorite @ 6/5 placed and paid $3.30
BBB is what his return would have been on a 50/50 Win only bet
CCC is what his return would have been on a 60/40 win bet
DDD is what his return would have been on a Sartin guidline bet
of a back up place bet on a high odds horse
EEE This again using a back up place bet with slightly higher than the win bet place bet

The total return for these bets is to the far right
