More signals pulled from New York OTB
By Matt Hegarty http://www.drf.com/news/article/113152.html The number of racing signals available to customers of the bankrupt New York City Off-Track Betting Corporation dwindled even further on Thursday with an order by state regulators to pull the signal from Hollywood Park, Churchill Downs, and Calder Race Course. The order from the New York State Racing and Wagering Board reduced New York City OTB's Friday afternoon Thoroughbred menu to two New York tracks, Belmont Park and Finger Lakes - both are required to be carried by law - and Golden Gate Fields. In addition to ordering the signals pulled, the board also told New York City OTB that it would not approve the company's simulcast contract with Monmouth Park, which opens on Saturday. In a letter sent to New York City OTB on Thursday, the board claimed that it "has no record" of approving simulcasting contracts with the tracks. The letter, which was released to Daily Racing Form after a request by the publication, said the board is "reviewing whether or not sanctions related to the simulcasting activity referenced should be recommended or imposed."

It seems lately that somebody IN THE INDUSTRY has finally gotten through to NYS Racing board and given them the insight how to finally cut off NYC OTB and their power.
Looks like the tide has finally turned against NYC OTB. Lets keep up the pressure! ![]()

Looks like they are pulling out the big guns now to force Fruchter to resign. I wonder why Paterson just won't fire him.
