Marshalls World of Sports NOT paying out FRIDAY 14.2.14

On Friday 14 Feb tuk a yankee at the Verulam branch of MWoS.
Due to the unsafe track conditions it was changed from turf to polytrack.
3 of my horses ran on the polytrack n I won the bet.
On presentation of my ticket I was told it was NOT a winning ticket due to the change of racing surfaces.
They could just as well damn abandoned the balance of the meeting.
How many others are in the same shit street as me?

Everyone , it's in their rules

You need to find out if they cancelled ALL the losing bets that punters had.
Here is a good place to start,if everyone that uses them had there bets cancelled then that is there prerogative.
My bets I had in UK all stood

Dave it's a well known rule in South Africa , it's not to stop people winning it's to stop people coming in after the result and saying I never had a bet in that course and expdcting their money back .

I took a treble, it started in the 6th race 8th and 9th ,do I get my money back even that I never won the treble

full refund S if you took it b4 the change of venue

Would imagine so, unless you took it after the betting was reformed..

12 .30 so that's good news, but I think I would have been pissed off had I won it

So how many people out there that didn't no about the change in venue and threw there tickets away. Is that jus another loss for us silly punters??

Know guys who had trebles on snaith horses 1st 2 won then change surface for 3rd horse lift off in the 5th race there bets became winning doubles

Guys, this is a Gambling Board rule. All the Provincial Gambling Boards have issued the
"OPERATIONAL RULES FOR BOOKMAKERS”, which in Section 20 it is clearly stated:

20. Change of venue or track

Where the venue of a race or track is changed from that originally advertised, the race shall
be deemed to have been abandoned and such bets shall be treated as described in rule 19
mutatis mutandis

Any complaints about this rule need to be addressed to the various Gambling Boards.

That is why imo they should not be allowed to change to the poly if racing has already started on the turf. .very confusing to punters and people who placed bets and were unaware of changes ... .
