Too many scratches maybe? I have no idea, but it's been announced on the 'live tote' at NYRAs website...

Can you imagine the aggravation now if you had a Pick 6 ready to go and it winds up hitting today?

More misinformation.
Amazing how many expertrs we have here who don't have sense God gave a mule.
This wasn't any grand conspiracy to promote a carryover to today.
NYRA had a tough call to make and they made the right call.
With the vidoe down EVERYWHERE!! And I do mean everywhere Scav, not even in NY on the racing channels, only place you could see a Belmont race was at the track.
They first had a 30 minute delay to attempt to see if they could straighten out the problem. When they could not estimate an ETA on getting the satellite uplink back they cancelled the pik-6. It was the only responsible thing to do. Lack of the signal would have caused people at ANYWHERE except Belmont itself not to be able to see odds, minutes to post, or track conditions or to even think they had cancelled racing.
They made the right call under the circumstances, and yes if there had not been a carryover they would not have cancelled wagering.
But there was a big one, and they acted prudently.
I love you Oliver Stone conspiracy guys, I really do.

Default Belmont Answer

Transmission problems delay card
By MIKE FARRELL
ELMONT, N.Y. - The start of the third race at Belmont Park on Friday was delayed at least a half hour as the New York Racing Association tried to restore the audio and video signal to over 1,000 off-track and simulcast outlets. Wagering was also interrupted at some offtrack sites.
Post time on the tote board for the third race was revised to 2:30 p.m. The race was originally scheduled for 2:02 p.m.

NYRA spokesperson Fran LaBelle Jr. blamed the failure on fiber-optic lines from Verizon.

The delay also pushed back the Pick 6, starting with the fourth race with a carryover of $456,860.

The people that run NYRA are crooks and con artists. This video problem is such a bunch of lies. Either there is a way they can skim money off the pick 6 or they did this to get attention to their saturday card, which nobody would bet anyway due to the field sizes. NYRA blows.

I love how they screw the guys who bet during the week so that the guy who bets on the weekend can have a chance at their pick 6.

NYRA=LIARS

Please explain to me the last time they had this problem with the pick 6. Try never.

While I have a problem with the decision, a big problem as I put a lot of effort and money into the Pick-6, the reason they cancelled the wager was apparantly because in some states it is illegal to bet without a signal.

What can I say....the first winner of the sequence was one of three on my main ticket. I'm certainly not happy. Now I can spend the rest of my afternoon rooting against my opinions....starting with my single in the 5th Legs Benedict.

i had the same thought about it carrying over to tomorrow , I figured it would be because a 50-1 shot would win one of the races . Sometimes I think it is fixed seems to be alot of carryovers when you have a big weekend of races coming up. Oh well back to the drawing board.
