Not always adjusted, sometimes they pull the plug on taking any more bets.At royal ascot they frequently stop bets on the color of the queens outfit for the day.
But seriously, I admire the way that meet has a row of books each with different prices. I haven't been there but they showed Nick Luck on MSNBC walking past them and buying a ticket from the best one. Came home at 10-1.
I dont see why a track can't give something like that a try, It would reward a patron that actually shows up. Of course, it's win bet only, I believe, which is a track's bread & butter. But they dont have to do it every day of the week. Something to reward the person that actually goes thru the turnstile.
