Le reste du peloton [...] La plupart des pistes de courses sont munies de tableaux prévoyant des pelotons de huit ou dix chevaux au maximum. Dans certaines courses, des stakes surtout, il y a parfois douze chevaux. Pour fins de paris, le secrétaire de courses réunit alors sous le même numéro, le «8» ou le «10» selon le tableau, les chevaux portant les numéros 8-9-10-11-12 ou 10-11-12.
