			 Every race meet licensee conducting a race meet or continuous race meet shall

			 ticket. The account number and place of deposit shall be reported to the
			 commission within 96 hours of the first day of the race meet or continuous race
			 meet. All deposits by the licensee to the Unclaimed Winnings Account shall be
			 made by the third business day following each race day. A statement of the

			 within 72 hours after any change in the account balance during the race meet,

			 of the race meet at which the pari-mutuel wagering ticket was purchased, may
			 within 90 days after the close of the meet file with the race meet licensee a
			 claim, in such form as the commission shall prescribe, accompanied by the valid
			 winning ticket. If the claimant establishes the right to winnings from the
			 mutuel wagering system, the race meet licensee shall pay such winnings to the
			 claimant. At the expiration of such 90 day period, the holder of such a winning
			 ticket shall possess no right to any portion of the wagering and the ticket
			 shall be deemed void. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, if the
			 90th day prescribed herein falls upon a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, then

			 implemented or changed prior to being approved by the commission.

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
The Oregon Racing Commission will use the following criteria to
				approve Oregon tracks (race meet licensees) to receive out-of-state simulcast
				signals.
(1) During Live Race Meet.
			 The Oregon track must be conducting a live race meet during the time in which
			 it is requesting to simulcast in the out-of-state races. The commission will
			 use calendar weeks in determining if a race meet is being conducted by the
			 track during the time that the simulcasting of out-of-state racing is being
			 requested.
(2) Consent. A race meet
			 that wishes to simulcast in races from out-of-state must receive the consent
			 from the organization which represents the majority of the persons who race
			 animals at the meet. If in the opinion of the commission this consent is being
			 unreasonably withheld the commission may waive this requirement.
(3) Purses. An application for simulcasting
			 must include a method for protecting purses at the live meet from the effects
			 of simulcasting. Unless otherwise approved by the commission or a different
			 agreement is reached pursuant to the consent requirement set out in section (2)
			 of this rule, the commission will require that purses shall be paid as a
			 percentage of total handle (live+simulcast).
(4) Live Signals. A race meet authorized to
			 simulcast must send its live signal to all off-track outlets. The off-track
			 outlets must accept the signal of any Oregon track which simulcasts its live
			 signal to the exclusion of any out-of-state signal.
(5) Singularity of Importing Race Meets. The
			 commission will not approve more than one Oregon race meet to import
			 out-of-state signals during the same day(s).
(6) Allocation of Simulcast Dates. On a date
			 set during January of each year, the commission will accept and consider
			 proposals to simulcast submitted by commercial race meets scheduled to begin
			 during that calendar year. For race meets which have not yet received a license
			 to run a live meet during that year, any authorization to simulcast will be
			 subject to the receipt and approval of an application for a race meet license.
			 In the event the commission receives more than one proposal to simulcast during
			 the same period of time, preference will be given to the best overall proposal.
			 Consideration will be given to all factors the commission deems relevant,
			 including but not limited to: the number of live performances, history and
			 financial strength of its principals and licensees, and the quality of the race
			 meet facility.
