Makes no sense to me.

That is genius

I was planning on playing rolling DD's into and out of the graded races today. Looks like I will be betting 1 Double instead of 4. My handle goes from 400 down to 100 and just for principal I won't throw the 300 into other pools.

Its a method to force you bet the pick 3....a costlier product. Makes more sense to have (3) pick 3s a day than to abolish the rolling DD.

You reduce the takeout and reduce the number of DD there are. How is this a win for the track and a win for the fans?
