Betfair will offer U.S. pools overseas

'Chris Scherf, the executive vice president of the Thoroughbred Racing Associations, a racetrack trade group, said that Betfair customers may be drawn to the ability to make exotic wagers such as exactas and trifectas on U.S. races, but he expressed doubts that commingled handle through Betfair would add up to a significant amount.

"I don't see those players going away from the betting exchange model for what we offer," Scherf said.'

If Betfair rebates, they sure will, if they don't, Scherf is probably right.

He said some stuff on that radio interview posted on Standardbred Canada that was ridiculous.

He talks out of both sides of his mouth.

Everything he said seemed to point to raising prices for at home bettors.

Just sickening.

How do you think he's kept that job all of these years? Racetrack management is so fragmented and stupid that they can't even get rid of their airhead spokesperson.
