Consumer complaint - he purchased a ticket for a simulcast race in New York; it was at first deemed a no winner and the patron discarded the ticket. However, an inquiry by the Judges quickly resulted I the ticket being a winning ticket, but when the patron went back to find his ticket, he could not. Even though an investigation confirms that the ticket the patron described was indeed purchased and was a winner, it would be a violation of pari-mutuel rules to pay out the winnings without the presentation of the ticket. The ticket was not cashed by any other individual. Case closed with no winnings paid out.

Consumer complaint - Robert Baker filed the complaint alleging that the photo for the 4th place in a race showed 1 dog to be much smaller than the other even though the program lists them as being the same size; investigation found that both the paddock & patrol judge both check the tattoo numbers of the dogs before they race & both people were interviewed; in addition, a review of the program shows that the #1 dog was a female weighing 64 pounds & the #2 dog was a male weighing 76 pounds; also, the angle of the camera contributes to why the dogs appear to be so different in size in the photo; investigator contacted the consumer with this info & he was satisfied with the result, thanking the investigator for looking into his complaint
