On Tuesday the mutuals manager at River Downs (Ohio) made the decision to cancel show betting in an 8 horse field, in an obvious attempt to avert a major minus pool.
I sent an E/Mail to Jack Hannessian, the GM, with a link to this thread attached, asking him how the incident cited here is different than that at River Downs.
While he did not reply the Mutuals Manager sought me out and informed me that it was strictly his decision, and that the stewards at River Downs nor did the mutuals manager at Thisledowns (our 7/7 partner) question him.
Obviously, in California there is a regulation governing when show pools are conducted but in Cincinnati, it is at the whim of the mutuals manager.
