I asked them already about the P5 takeouts, whether they were going to remain at their current levels or be increased to 25%. Here's the response:
Thank you for inquiring about the new Pick 5 at Woodbine. We regret that you are unhappy about our takeout rate. If you are not satisfied with how the takeout rates are being implemented, please feel free to voice your criticism to the Ontario Racing Commissions office (416-213-0520) or the Canadian Pari-Mutuel Agency (1-800-268-8835).
In other words, no real response at all. So I've repeated the question and asked for a straight answer rather than the typical Woodbine obfuscation. Still waiting.
By the way, any time there's a high takeout, you know that the horsemen's fingerprints are all over it. The triactor takeouts would be lower if WO management had gotten its way, but the horsemen refused.
