It has been reported that the New York Racing Association cannot trace all of the $1.2-million it wrongfully overcharged bettors that had wagered on exotics that had the wrong takeout rate attached to them

.

An article by The Saratogian has quoted NYRA President and CEO Charles Hayward as this week telling a franchise oversight board that, “for people who bet with a ticket, we’ll never be able to find those customers.”

When one of the board members asked how NYRA auditors missed the overcharging, Hayward said, “you have to talk to them."
