After the Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) carryover is frozen, 100 percent of the net pool, part of which ordinarily would be added to the Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) carryover, shall be distributed to those whose selection finished first in the greatest number of Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) contests for that performance. (8) A written request for permission to distribute the Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the commission. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.

The Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the net Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) pool of the following meet on a date and performance so designated by the commission. (11) With the written approval of the commission, the race meet licensee may contribute to the Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) carryover a sum of money up to the amount of any designated cap. (12) Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations, number of tickets sold, or number of live tickets remaining is strictly prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalizator and pari-mutuel department employees for processing of pool data. (13) The race meet licensee may suspend previously approved Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) wagering with the prior approval of the commission. Any carryover shall be held until the suspended Racing Roulette Jackpot Pick (n) wagering is reinstated.
