Isn't the switch triggered by the starter's button hooked into the mutuels?

Had your "Get over it" appeared in a widely distributed medium, as opposed to a chat room, I doubt that horseplayers would have been thrilled, to say the least, with reading it. Clearly, I'm not the only one here who objected to your take on this issue, though I happen to agree with many of your points. I objected to one part of what you wrote.

Call it whatever you want. And if horseplayers are pissed so be it. It is my view on this one particular race.

If you can find a horseman that speaks up in support of horseplayers more than me, I would like to meet them.

Can be.. Why it's not installed that way more widely is a mystery.
