Bettors Consternation as New York Law Holds Gravesend
At Gravesend track about 4,000 spectators saw no public betting as the anti-betting law functioned. One arrest occurred when George Cafferata, a bookmaker, bet on Simon Pure and was charged with posting odds. Pack McKenna argued the bet off and avoided arrest. Police limited crowd dispersal, while professional bettors still wagered privately. Tracks plan purse reductions or suspensions. Brooklyn Jockey Club pledges no purse cuts, Sheepshead Bay considering smaller added money. Brighton Beach Racing Association proposes stake modifications amid ongoing legal doubt.
