A quick comment on this announcement...
I won’t be at all surprised if more tracks begin to move in this direction. The amount of handle that is returned to the tracks and horsemen differs significantly if a bet is place on-track or off-track, which is one of the reasons that the change in betting habits has (from on-track to internet) has caused problems. Setting up an ADW to function the same as an on-track bet is really the next logical step in the process for the tracks. How this will play out, however, is really anyones guess.
