Section 308.40  Scratches

a)         Should a betting interest in any of the Pick (n) contests be scratched, the actual favorite, as evidenced by total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the closing of wagering on that contest, shall be substituted for the scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations.  In the event that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the substitute selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program number.  The totalizator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering combinations with substituted betting interests which became winners as a result of the substitution, in addition to the normal winning combination.

b)         Once wagering has closed for the first race of a Pick (n) Pool, if a race is moved from the turf course to the dirt track, then all ticket holders are considered winners for that race of the Pick (n) Pool.  The entire net pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those whose selections finish first in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests.  Any previous carryover shall not be included unless the pool has been designated as a mandatory distribution.
