N.J. Admin. Code § 13:70-29.29

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 13:70-29.29 - Refunds

(a) In all cases when a horse has been excused by the stewards after wagering has started, but before off-time, all money wagered on the horse so excused shall be deducted from the pool and be refunded.

(b) If a horse is left at the post at off-time there shall be no refund, but if one horse or more is prevented from leaving the post at off-time because of being locked in the gate, the money wagered on said horse or horses so locked in the gate shall be deducted from the pool and be refunded.

(c) If no horse finishes in a race, all money wagered on that race shall be refunded.

(d) If two or more horses in a race are coupled on the same mutuel ticket, there shall be no refund unless all of the horses so coupled are excused before off-time, or all of the horses so coupled are locked in the gate. Discretion is, however, vested in the stewards to order a refund wherein a part of an entry in a stake, handicap or futurity is excused before off-time where it is in the public interest to do so. In such an instance, the remaining part of the entry shall race for the purse only.

(e) In the case of a race postponed beyond the day originally scheduled, as provided for in N.J.A.C. 13:70-6.50, all money wagered on said race shall be refunded.

(f) If a race is declared off by the stewards after wagering begins on that race, all money wagered on that race shall be refunded.

(g) In the event track conditions require a turf race to be moved to the main track, advance wagers shall be refunded at the request of the bettor up until post-time of the race immediately preceding the scheduled turf race. This does not apply to Super-Six wagers.
