Update

So far I have a list of 66 names, which is an exact even split 33-33 from Pace Advantage and DerbyTrail, to take to the AZHBPA next week. In speaking with the head of the group, I really think he underestimated how powerful the online group could be, so I simply want to show him the list and the comments posted by everyone on here.

If you have anything at all to say to the horsemen or anyone else in Arizona regarding this law, please post in the thread. I think we can make a statement with our words and apparantely our wallets on this new law.

Thanks to everyone who has shown support on this.

I find it very hypocritical that the state of AZ allows wagers from ADW's into their local betting pools. Is it a crime or not?

This is a big issue that I have with it. They have established a 1-way street, for money to come into the state from around the country from ADW's, yet ban any money from leaving to support racing anywhere else in the country. That is wrong, and manipulates the market in a very unfair way.

Not only is it an invasion of privacy, but they are simply going to drive people to use offshore books. If people want to gamble, they are going to find a way to do it and by letting this law stand, they are only costing themselves and the horseman money in the future.
