  • (1) Each purse in the Michigan-bred pari-mutuel races that have 5 or more starters shall be divided as follows: 50%-25%-12%-8%-5%. If there are fewer than 5 starters, then all uncontested  money shall  be  paid  to the winner. If there is a premium or premiums for which a horse has started, but was unable to finish due to an accident, all unoffending horses that  did not finish will share equally in the  premiums.  However, if there are fewer unoffending horses failing to finish than there are premiums for which horses have started but have not finished, then the number of premiums in excess  of the number of unoffending horses not finishing shall  go  to  the winner.
