Fairmount and Boscar- the only possible legal claims against any of the ADWs or tracks is based on the failure to disclose. Let me back up for a second- several years ago as word of Elite’s ownership leaked out, I emailed the geniuses at Xpressbet to express my concern that I was being treated unfairly etc etc. The response- believe it or not- was a denial Xpressbet had any interest in Elite. Given my background and knowing bullshit when I read it, I pressed and asked “ ARE YOU TELLING THAT NO Stronach RELATED ENTITY HAS ANY CONNECTION WITH XPRESSBET.� Of course there was no response. There are two avenues of pursuit. The first is a retail horseplayers boycott. That will not happen. Second, is an appeal to the state legislatures of each track that is licensed by a state to conduct parimutuel wagering. Good luck with that. As painful as it may be to hear, if the tracks/ ADWs make full disclosure of the different “ categories� or levels of rewards they are free to fashion whatever business works for them. I do not intend to turn this into a political discourse, but whatever your political positions may be, we are living through a humongous era of plutocracy where the super big at everything rule and eff you if you don’t like it. It permeates media, technology and yes, horse racing! I was a Saratoga yesterday and the thread that ran through every discussion was CAW, small payouts etc— but the complainers keep betting. As I have previously stated, as long as bettors keep betting nothing will change. Marshall Gramm ain’t gonna help you. The day of the successful retail better is over for 98% of the betting populace. Acknowledging that is very hard, since the game is fun. Most of my handle is contests ( today, like most big race days will be an exception). If you are a TGRAPH player you will do well in the contests. Good luck to all.
