Why not sue all Racing contests? Isn't all the samething when fictional betting is done? Is there a particular beef with DerbyWars?

In the long run, the tracks and the contest sites will hopefully come to realization that the sum could be greater than the parts. Especially in the effort to garner younger fans, who are literally growing up playing fantasy sports games on their phones.
Stronach is the first to take action and force the top contest site to the bargaining table. While DW smartly tied up some strategic alliances with other key groups, Stronach is taking a harder line. From my perspective, I'd love to see an integrated platform where you could check an optional box on a contest site to make your mythical WP bets real. O

Is ‘RICO’ a Reach in DerbyWars Suit?
Very interesting, must read, T.D. Thornton TDN piece, for those following the story.. Will also post the Charlie Hayward piece link from a couple weeks ago too.
