Hello @Jessicab007233 Welcome to the community!
There are at least two versions of the episode race out there at the moment, maybe even three.Some players get 30 gold, some 35 gold for each episode race. And then of course the amount also changes after each race until you reach Champions Race. Players are grouped into these different test groups for the event by King. This sounds all quite complicated, and apparently it is too complicated for King! You are not the only person who has noted a discrepancy between the amount they are told they will earn and what is actually added to their accounts. Luckily for some, some of us have noticed exactly the opposite: I have a race that tells me I get 35 gold for the Champions Race but it adds 40 gold each time. There does indeed seem some confusion at King's end about who is in which test group!
I am not sure if there is anything you can do about this, but you could try to contact Player Support. Go into Settings in your game (the small pink cogwheel top right on the map screen) then choose the ? icon and scroll through all the options until you see "contact us" at the bottom.
