New Betting System Changes at Aqueduct Opening
Opening day at Aqueduct shows a largely seamless shift to a new betting format with bookmakers standing, not moving, and $5 minimum bets in the grand stand and $2 in the field. About 300 odds layers operate with satchels replacing money boxes as managers report unusually light betting and no major disputes. Long Island Rail Road raises race train fares by 50 cents for the season, while track police enforce age rules with no minors found.
