In this day in age, you would think these morons can equate the gates opening with closing pools, with a simple sensor. It is very simple from a logisitic side. What they should do is very very simple.
Put sensors on all the gates, and when ALL of those sensors are opened, wagering closes, and what you do is give one of the morons in the stewards booth a switch and tell him to click that button once the gates open.
And lets say one of the horses pops open the gate by accident, well that wouldn't close the pools becuase ALL of them would have to open. Simple f'n technology.
Problem with this industry is that there is a bunch of old goats running it, and a bunch of younger tech savy people wanting to get into it, but the goats fear change. Just bad bad business models.
