Option Betting Is Counted Out at Syracuse Meet
The Associated Press reports option betting modeled on pari mutuels continued at the Onondaga Racing Association meet despite a New York racing commission order to stop illegal option pools. The commission plans a July 19 hearing to determine license actions, while district attorneys and sheriffs were urged to enforce the law but offered no immediate action. The attorney general views the scheme as a disguised pari mutuel system violating the state constitution and penal law.
