    • I realise you look for anything you can to moan about but some of your comments are not correct regarding the Safer Betting options available on the TAB App.  Just click on the hamburger button bottom right titled more and you will see on the next menu a position 4 a tab through to a Safer Betting Menu. There you can find a plethora of options to limit your betting - glad you are worried about it just before Christmas and intend to limit your losses.  You can also view you statements.  
    • With the Kentucky Derby still 22 weeks away, the pari-mutuel field of “All Other Foals from the 2023 Foal Crop” closed as the 2-1 favorite in Pool 2 of the Kentucky Derby Future Wager (KDFW) and Spendthrift Farm's unbeaten GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Ted Noffey (Into Mischief) from the barn of two-time Derby winner Todd Pletcher was the 7-1 second choice. Saturday's GII Kentucky Jockey Club winner Further Ado (Gun Runner) also attracted some interest from bettors at 13-1.   TOP 10 BETTING CHOICE (with trainer, sire, Pool 2 odds and $2 Win Will Pays) #40 All Other Foals from the 2023 Foal Crop (2-1, $6.08) #37 Ted Noffey (Todd Pletcher, Into Mischief, 7-1, $16.84) #14 Further Ado (Brad Cox, Gun Runner, 13-1, $28.86) #28 Napoleon Solo (Chad Summers, Liam's Map, 21-1, $44.84) #2 Boyd (Bob Baffert, Violence, 22-1, $46.16) #29 Paladin (Chad Brown, Gun Runner, 22-1, $46.90) #3 Brant (Bob Baffert, Gun Runner, 25-1, $52) #17 Incredibolt (Riley Mott, Bolt d'Oro, 28-1, $59.94) #26 Mr. A. P.

This year's early Derby betting menu also included the Kentucky Derby Sire Future Wager, which, for the 11th consecutive year, provided bettors with an opportunity to wager on select sires and their entire crop of juveniles with the hope of winning next year's Kentucky Derby.    Into Mischief at 9-2 and Gun Runner at 5-1, the sires of Ted Noffey and Further Ado, respectively, attracted the most attention from bettors as did Not This Time at 7-1. Total betting on the Kentucky Derby Sire Future Wager was $56,359 ($44,496 in the Win pool and $11,863 in the Exactas). The KDFW Pool 2 and Sire Future Wager combined to handle $317,435. Pool 1, which covered Oct. 29-31, had record early November total betting of $184,492 ($143,448 in the Win pool and $41,044 in Exactas), which brings the early Future Wager total betting to $501,927.

    • Otaki have use of their track and facilities 365 days a year to earn revenue. 10k a day for 3 of those days doesn't sound too bad and from what I know is in line with what is commonly paid. Maybe a bit less for industry days. Why you would expect Levin to pass on more of the revenue they earn from those meetings is beyond me. I'm surprised you don't expect them to pay Otaki their oncourse turnover commission as well.
    • Del Mar rounded out its 12th Bing Crosby Fall Meet on Sunday with a 9.4% gain in total handle, despite running one fewer day than in 2024 due to a weather-related cancellation. Total wagering for the recently concluded 13-day fall meet rose to $183.4 million compared to $167.6 million for the 14-day 2024 fall season. Average daily handle for the 13 race days was $14.1 million an increase of 17.8% from last year. Field size for the fall season remained steady at 7.77 runners per race versus 7.72 in 2024. For the second year in a row, the highlight of the fall session was the Breeders' Cup World Championships held on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1. (The 2025 handle and field size figures exclude races conducted over the two Breeders' Cup cards.) The 2025 Breeders' Cup–Del Mar's fourth time hosting the World Championships in the past nine years–highlighted domestic and international runners with the handle topping $180 million for only the third time in the history of the event. The nation's premier fall season turf racing was conducted over Del Mar's Jimmy Durante Turf Course and featured the FanDuel Racing Turf Festival–six graded stakes races over the final weekend. “The recent strong business results at Santa Anita, along with those from our own summer and fall meets, show that the public is embracing the single-circuit model to the benefit of California racing stakeholders,” said Del Mar President Josh Rubinstein. “We're grateful for the continued support from owners, trainers, and horseplayers across the country, and we remain focused on finding additional ways to strengthen the economics of racing in California.” Leading jockey honors came down to the final day of the meet, with Umberto Rispoli securing the title with 17 wins. In the race for leading trainer, George Papaprodromou finished atop the standings with 11 victories. The leading owner for the fall season was Juddmonte, concluding the meet with four wins. “The results from Del Mar's fall meet reaffirm that California racing is moving in the right direction,” said Thoroughbred Owners of California Chairman Gary Fenton. “Handle growth, competitive fields, and the success of the Breeders' Cup showcase the value of a unified, single-circuit approach. TOC will continue working with our partners to build on this momentum and deliver a healthier, more sustainable future for our owners and the entire racing ecosystem.” Del Mar will resume racing at its 2026 summer season, scheduled from July 17 through Sept. 7.
