P5 and P6 refunded. Carryovers fund tomorrow\'s pools.

It looks like they canceled P6 and P5 and gave refunds.
Doesn’t seem fair if you hit first Legs.
Maybe it’s in the rules??

From NY Gaming Commission Rule 4011.26(h):

(h) Race cancellations. Except for pick-six pools in which an intermediate or final distribution is to be made, should one or more pick-six races be cancelled or declared no race or non-betting, no carry-overs from prior pick-six pools, advertised guaranteed amounts nor advertised added amounts will be distributed to winners in such day\'s pick- six pool; and

(1) if more than three such races are contested, 75 percent of that program\'s net pool shall be distributed, less breaks, to holders of wagers upon the winners of all the contested pick-six races and 25 percent of such program\'s net pool shall be distributed to the holders of wagers selecting the next most winners; should no wager select the winners of all the contested pick-six races, 25 percent of the net pool shall be distributed, less breaks, to the holders of wagers selecting the most winners of the contested pick-six races, and 75 percent of such program’s net pool shall be carried over as elsewhere provided in this section;

(2) if three or fewer such races are contested, then entire pool for such program shall be refunded; and

That certainly addresses the pick 6 as it references that specific wager :

\"contested pick 6 races\"

Count me as one who had 1st 2 pick 5 legs today with about 15 live horses.
Not too thrilled to get a refund when probably 50% or more of tickets wagered were already eliminated.

Imagine the 6 to 1 was a 60 to 1 in first leg?

I would be suing them for my Maserati and new Beach house!!
