....if you wanted him in the Derby! Not in California you couldn't if you wanted to take some "quick picks" in the exotics.
Apparently due to a glitch in their system, the Scientific Games software wouldn't give you the 20 post in any of the quick picks. :WTF:
The worst part is, Scientific Games knew about this problem as early as February, but never reported it to any agencies that should have been notified. Maybe they were hoping that 20 horses or more wouldn't be entered by May when the Derby went off, or that a horse coming out of that hole couldn't possibly win the race. No matter, they probably cheated some bettors out of at least a few winners and some people must be pretty pissed off.
Haven't read anything about them possibly reimbursing some bettors, but some lawsuits are sure to come from this "glitch"!
