Aqu 7th: why no refund on the #10?

[IrishofNDMan]

Are you always asking for a refund????

[gales0678]

no i lost fair and square at GP , i lost fair and square erlier in the day at the big a

i just posted what i saw and what others around were screaming about in today's 7th , clearly if you saw it there was gate crew interference, i saw it and half of the otb i was at saw it - maybe i'm dumb , maybe steve can get someone from NYRA ( a steward perhaps) on the show to ask him if they even look at those tyoe of situations.

Normally I'd be inclined to agree with the dissenters but since the OTB gang saw it the same way, I'll have to defer to them. I mean, some of the most astute horseplayers in the history of the game are hanging out at my local OTB, puffing away.

what about the tri fat , a little short for the horses invloved though no?

Did the gate crew hold the horse for 30 seconds?

He never came out for God's sake.

Andy congarts on the pick 4 , nice hit for you, i had the 10 so it didn't matter as even if he was refunded my $ goes to the #2 and i lose anyway

there was a lot of commotion at the otb , people screaming , i don't even think there was an inquiry posted, the reply clearly showed a member of the gate crew right on the horse as the gate opened , the horse went right up into the top of the gate when it opened , clearly he was not going to be interested in running , but, after all that how does the tri come back that short in that field with all the big $ horses out , if the #10 was refunded the tri would have even come back shorter and looked evem more questionable

Trifecta pool $196,534.00 less 25% takeout leaves $147,400.50. A $1 trifecta ticket paid $989.50, so there were $148.00 worth of winning trifecta tickets and the breakage was $954.50. That's how it paid that much, unless there's some sort of conspiracy and NYRA is cheating, if that's what your getting at.

A lot of people like to throw a bunch of bombs into a trifecta for that lottery-type ticket. It seems that was the case here.

You don't have credibilty in this thread after this post.

Vol JAck - lsiten i would only expect andy to say what he said , he is a NYRA empolyee , he is simply sticking up for those that he works with , he is not going to throw anybody under the bus , but , clearly anyone that watched the race saw it , i saw it, and then i heard screaming at the otb for the next 15 minutes about it

If you bet the 10.......sorry.

the horse decided to take a seat just as the gates opened.
It couldn't have been forseen.

And there's no difference between that and
when a runner leaps at the start throwing the jock.

the end result would be the same.

You must have seen a very different Head-on replay than I did. Or you are in bad need of an Optomitrist.
