Here's a link to an interesting article that has appeared in DRF concerning yesterday's tote outage at Tampa Bay and certain other tracks.

I think that we will hear more about this if the requested investigation occurs.

Wow maybe we all get a refund on our TB Derby bets, In that case I would get a whole $4. I'll try to bet it wisely.

Yes you will. It was run as a non-wagering race, and race 12 was cancelled in its entirety.

Maybe it's not so much of a mystery why they were able to come up with horizontal payoffs. Those payoffs don't seem to change that much, if at all, and are available long before the race is run in the will-pays whereas the WPS, Exacta, Tri, Super are constantly changing before a race is actually run. I could be wrong about that as I don't often bet the Daily Doubles, P3s,P4s,P5s, and P6s.

I had the trifecta for 50 cents but did not get paid - as you know. I bet the #9 to win, and a 5/9 exacta box and a 7/9 exacta box too. For all of it I got a full refund instead of the trifecta for 50 cents. Don't think I lost much on the deal. But if the #9 got up, I would crying like a baby!
