According to DRF,the sites were shut off because NYRA asked the state's Racing and Wagering Board at the beginning of the year to approve all of its simulcast contracts individually, rather than as a whole and the board could not complete the process. Now NYRA is refusing to answer why they asked the board to do this.
It's not like NYRA is rolling in money and doesn't need the simulcast money. And i'm sure their primary intent is not to inconvenience the betting public (albeit track management often seems adept at doing this).
What is the real reason behind NYRA's actions?
