I would guess, and I'm saying guess, that there are far more fixed races than any problem with a sticky stop betting button. It's nice for all the editorial comments here but hard to see any conclusion that will really manner.

In a sport that is given life by people's opinions, it so entertaining to read views on any particular subject here as all of us handicap life differently.

For me the biggest issue in the sport today is me winning the next damn race. That, and the blatant discrimination against 6 foot tall jockeys...it's a shame.

But what do I know?

Just stop the wagering @ 3-5min b4 post. All wagers should be in by the start of the race. If a bettor can't get his/her wager in by that time, sorry should bet earlier. I've been shut out @ the windows many of times by waiting until the last second. Just my opinion

Instead of 3-5 minutes before, perhaps we should bet all the races before the 1st post. Better yet, if one of your horse scratches you just lose your entire wager.
