to receive the money due may file the following with the
organization licensee within sixty (60) days after the wager has
been made:
1.  A verified claim on a form prescribed and furnished by the
Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission setting forth such information as
may be necessary to identify the particular pool and the amount
claimed therefrom; and
2.  A substantial portion of the pari-mutuel ticket upon which
the claim is based, sufficient to identify the particular racetrack,
race, and horse involved, the amount wagered, and whether the ticket
was a win, place, or show ticket.

licensee the Commission shall hear any disputed claim and consider

the proof offered in its support.  Unless the claimant

claim shall be rejected.  If the claim is allowed, the organization
licensee shall pay the amount of the claim to the claimant upon
order of the Commission.

accompanied by a completed form as prescribed by the Commission; and
2.  The organization licensee shall remit calendar quarterly
payments of all unclaimed ticket proceeds which have been in the
organization licensee's possession for no fewer than sixty (60) days
after the wager has been made, regardless of whether the wager was
from live racing or simulcasting or during or between live race
meetings.
