Under this bet your horse has to be placed in the top two to four (depending on the number of runners) in a single race.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>First Two (or First Three):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you would like to bet on all winning places, you can use this betting market. Here you have to name the first two (or three) horses to come to the finish line, as well as predict the right order in which they will do it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Two From Three:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This bet is similar to the previous one but involves a little less risk. Your task is to name two out of the three horses to reach the finish first. They may come to the finish line in any order, that won\u2019t affect your wager.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always remember to gamble responsibly and treat betting as a form of entertainment and not means for financial gain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>St. Legery Stakes Past Winners<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The list of the St. Legery Stakes past winners includes generations of highly skilled racing horses and talented jockeys.
