Spanish term or phrase: clasificar (in this context)

From a text on betting on horse races:

Si no se clasificase ningún caballo en la llegada, o si se clasificase en cada tipo específico de apuesta un menor número de caballos de los que dan derecho a premio, se procederá como en el supuesto anterior.

Do they mean finish in the top spots?
TIA!!
