How do they (NYRA) initiate a rule change like this should they choose to do so? It just seems a bit odd that it is recognized that payoffs according to mutuel odds are respected in one form of multi race play but not others.

Other way around... P3 payoffs are split but P4 and P6 are not. Point well taken, though. It really isn't a fair rule but they blame technology for it. I blame laziness.
