Section 4217.9 - Effect-horse scratched, excused

(a) Should any horse in the first or the second race of the daily double be scratched or excused by the judges, before the running of the first race, all money wagered on combinations including such horse shall be deducted from the daily double pool and shall be refunded upon presentation and surrender of pari-mutuel tickets sold thereon. Horses coupled with a starter in a coupled entry or field shall be governed by the provisions of section 4215.19 of this Subchapter.

(b) Should any horse in the second race of the daily double be scratched or excused by the judges after the running of the first race of the daily double, a consolation pool will result. In such case, all tickets combining the scratched or excused horse with the actual winner of the first race shall become consolation tickets and shall be paid a price per dollar bet determined as follows: the net daily double pool shall be divided by the total purchase price of all daily double tickets designating the winner of the first race of the daily double and the result obtained shall constitute the consolation price per dollar bet. The amount set aside for these consolation payoffs will be deducted from the net daily double pool.
