Interesting argument here as I've read all of the post. If this indeed happened, it's a shame. I'm hoping this doesn't happen again at any track.
It takes away from the integrity of the game. Speaking of integrity, how can anyone respect this Maloney fellow if he knowingly CHEATED. Also would he bloviate on this if he in fact had won his tardy wager. Big Bettor or not, I question his character.. As far as when to shut down the windows. In no way do I want the race to close 2 seconds or two minutes before the gate opens. I'm sure most of the people who support shutting the windows early haven't had to stand in line with the average race fan in quite some time. There has to be technology to prevent betting after the horses have left the gate.
