Does this really surprise anybody? While having the "all" remedy for pic-4s and pic-6s in the event of a surface switch is not the rule in other states, NY's archane racing rules still force daily double and pic-3 players to ride those wagers out with their original selections even when there is a surface switch. Even though this quirk in the rules has been brought to their attention, NY officials have done nothing for years to change the "unfair" double and pic-3 rules.

IMO, the P5 in NY will be massive. Its a shame there is so much tape to cut through.

Steve, do we know if they have put the technical means in place (software and processing capability) to turn on the Pick 5 wager if they do get the red tape resolved?

I'm definitely interested in playing it.

The tote programming is no problem. They'll be ready as soon as it's a go.
