    In short words, books on horse racing are laid to a one winner situation, therefore if there two winners, all winning tickets count as one winner to the full stake, and so to even out a liability the prices are halved (or depending on the amount of winners i.e 3 it would be a third). It is a stupid rule punter-wise, but take a look if your were a bookmaker, you wouldnt want to pay out twice!
