10. There has never been a better time to be an investor, at the track or in the stock market.

“Despite facing higher takeout and fewer casual opponents, the 21st-century horseplayer has a tremendous opportunity that his counterpart of 50 years ago did not enjoy: The ability to bet a race in a dizzying array of options beyond win, place and show. Nearly every race in America now offers both multi-horse bets — the exacta, trifecta and superfecta — and also is part of at least one multi-race bet — a daily double, pick three, four or six.”
