I talked to them on the phone. They confimed that the numbers I had were correct. They confimed all the numbers that I posted here. There was $31,701 in the win pool. The winner had $2,090 bet to win on him. How could the horse only pay $20.20 to win? He should have paid about $24.80 to win.

Ask to talk to the director of mutuels because they gave you incorrect numbers. And if they cannot get the director of mutuels tell them you will get a hold of your Oklahoma Congressman and find out about how licenses are revoked for the director of mutuels at the track.

If you want your money or make a point you can. I guarantee it. If they have made a mistake, or not... if you pester enough they will give you satisfaction. There are a lot of people in this state that think racing is crooked anyway. This track knows this.

This needs to be resolved. There must be a state racing commission of some sort that can be written.

My guess is that this wager was placed off shore.

Doesn't matter Scav. Rupert is talking about the numbers in the pool.
