A. All pari-mutuel tickets evidencing the right to participate in pari-mutuel pools or the right to a refund must be presented for payment within ninety days after the close of the race meeting conducted by the licensee. The failure to present such a ticket within the prescribed time shall constitute a waiver of the right to participate in the pari-mutuel pool or the right to a refund.

A sum not to exceed two hundred fifty thousand dollars for each race meeting shall be retained by the licensee and the remaining amount, if any, shall be paid over to the Louisiana State Racing Commission under oath, which shall then deposit said funds to the State General Fund of the state treasury with a report submitted under oath.
