Default No Colonial Downs on twinspires.com today?

Grabbed the PPs from twinspires.com yesterday, log on to watch replays this morning only to find out that apparently Colonial Downs isn't on their wagering menu today.

Hasn't been on Xpressbet all meet. They haven't come to agreements with most of the Internet wagering sites.

Sounds like they are still getting no where with the ADW mess:
http://www.vtablog.org/

Today’s VRC meeting was marked with what Greg Scoggins of MEC/Xpress Bet called a “Virginia venting session.” After Colonial CEO Ian Stewart explained the negative impact of the TrackNet Media/Twin Spires/Xpress Bet/related racetracks and subsidiaries and YouBet boycott of the Colonial Downs signal, a spontaneous forum erupted and all the various parties in the room had a chance to speak their peace.

Two words: Nice mess.

We won’t rehash why each of the parties thinks their position is the right one, but suffice it to say that it’s going to take a while to sort out the ever growing ADW puzzle in Virginia.
See above from another thread.

With carryovers in NY (five of the pick six races scheduled for the turf) and CA, I personally won't miss wagering on Colonial.

Thanks. Appreciate that as I missed that piece.
Quite the shame. Especially nice wagering card today.
