Here's the response I got from Zoccali
''First of all, if you want me to address an issue you should talk to me like a human being instead of cursing at me which I don't appreciate at all.
Secondly, the rules were never changed. A scratch in a pick 3 results in a consolation payoff. You do not get the post time favorite. It has the same rule as the daily double. The only wagers that result in you getting the post time favorite if there is a scratch are the pick 4 and pick 5. Every racetrack applies these same rules.''
oh for the record , I never cursed at him once in my post .
