I thought everyone had an issue last time (rightfully so) because they did not follow the rules. They are following the rules.
Sure, people would complain they always do but less would complain then when they start on then take it off. Those guys at work... How did they put their bets in? Are they following racing during the day? It's not like it is 1975. How many of these people that went to work do you think physically went to the track to buy their tickets? But my idea to refund the portion of the ticket not run as Advertised would cover them. I know it won't happen.

Look I knew the weather was iffy today and took my chance, but my thought process was they wouldn't start if they knew it was going to be bad. That was a very bad decision on my part. My solution going forward if there is any risk whatsoever, I won't participate. Stupid of me to think they would take the races off before the Pick 5.
