Del Mar: 50¢ Pick 4's, decimal odds

[Alan07]

The CHRB approved the application for the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club to operate a race meet at Del Mar from July 21 through September 8. Del Mar President and General Manager Craig Fravel noted that Del Mar will be offering 50-cent Pick 4 wagering.


And at the suggestion of the CHRB’s Pari-Mutuel Operations Committee, Del Mar will experiment with decimal odds displays in a limited way while retaining all of its traditional fractional odds displays.

Chairman Brackpool agreed with Fravel that if full decimal odds displays are going to be presented, they should be introduced methodically and at all California racetracks, not just at Del Mar.

Now the big question, will there be horses to run at Del Mar.

The Gallop Racer series used decimal odds.

I need a new racing game for the PS3.

50 cent pick fours will be the norm here in the next year, it makes too much sense that even racing won't screw it up......................maybe
