I assume they are scared this might happen on a double carryover day or something.

Instead of a forced carryover -- the rule -- if written fairly -- would be that the days pool is paid out at the standard takeout rate.

That way -- if this happens on a double carryover day -- the double carryover holds for the next day.

That would be a track friendly rule and not a player friendly rule ... but at least it's fair.

Nothing about the current rule is even slightly or remotely fair... and again .. I say this as someone who wasn't involved and didn't get screwed either time.
