Section 10.03. System failure.  


Latest version.
  • If, for any reason, during the course of a racing program the totalizator system is unable to record wagers received from the public or guarantee the integrity of the pari-mutuel pools, the totalizator system licensee shall advise the mutuel manager who shall then immediately notify the stewards. The totalizator system licensee shall keep the stewards advised of its efforts to correct the problem and, if said licensee is unable to correct the problem, it shall so advise the stewards. After consultation with the association, the stewards may order the cancellation of wagering for the race or program and the refund of the affected wagers. The stewards, after consultation with the association may permit some or all of the remaining races to be contested as wagerless exhibitions, after taking into consideration factors including, but not limited to, the purses, the amount of wagering, and the time required to make repairs to the totalizator system.
