What GP has been doing for sometime now is ridiculous, it is often five or more minutes after it hits 0 MTP before they actually get the race off. It is bad enough to watch odds change significantly after a race goes off which is understandable as many pools are combined a few seconds after the race but to never accurately know when a race is going to go off is inexcusable.

Is it really too much to ask a racetrack to post accurate minutes to post?

While they are at it they need to get a better Morning Line maker.

GP 7th winner goes of at 5/2 of a 15-1 Morning line... How can someone be so far wrong? How often do you see something like that happen in New York or So Cal? I can't remember an instance

Green Gratto on Monday was similar. But yes, it is so much more rare in NY.

Green Gratto going of at 5/2 was a result of the other speed in the race scratching and the bias that was going on at the Big A.

Very much this.

Also, Steve talked about it on his show a few weeks ago. He made a great point that if you're playing/watching multiple tracks from home you never know when to switch your video feed over. It's just annoying, inconsiderate and unnecessary.
