As mes says, if you are assigning probabilities as a handicapping tool, then those probabilities should add to 100%.
I have an Excel spreadsheet that at the click of a button will adjust a preliminary odds set up or down until the probabilities total 100%. I offered that program (for free) to Derby Trailers some time ago. Let me know if you'd like a copy.
