I was watching but didnot see him walking around, I was waiting to cancel and rekey but didnot think i had time to rekey and had spent time on the bet, so didnot cancel.I was waiting for an unload to do so. Why should bettors be put in that place when a scratch at the gate can change the nature of the race ? NYRA used to unload but apparently they r not now and in the future i will cancel the bet .I don't like delays like anyone else, but it is a betting game and I donot like a fast shuffle.
