Horse Racing Terms – The "O" List





Oaks: A stakes event for 3-year-old fillies.

Objection: Claim of foul lodged by rider, trainer or patrol judge after running of a race. If lodged by stewards, it’s called an inquiry.

Odds-on: Odds of less than even money.

Official: Notice displayed when a race result is confirmed.

Off-track betting (OTB): Wagering at legalized betting outlets usually run by the tracks, management companies specializing in pari-mutuel wagering, or, in New York State, by independent corporations chartered by the state. Wagers at OTB sites are usually commingled with on-track betting pools.

On the bit: When a horse is eager to run; also known as "in the bridle."

On the board: Finishing among the first three.

On the muscle: Denotes a fit horse.

On the nose: Betting a horse only to win.

Out of the money
: A horse that finishes fourth or worse.

Overlay: A horse going off at higher odds than appears to warrant based on its past performances.

Overnight (race)
: A sheet published by the racing secretary’s office listing entries for an upcoming racing card; a race in which entrees close a specific number of hours before running as opposed to a stakes race for which nominations close weeks and sometimes months in advance.

Overweight: Surplus weight carried by a horse when the rider can’t make the required weight.
