Why is it that the take is higher for exotic wagers such as trifectas.Racetracks should have one set takeout for all types of wagers, having a limit of 17 % takeout for all wagers would be what the racing industry needs to turn things around. People would see the higher payoffs in the exotics, they would win more money thus they would bet more .

Does the racing industry think that we are this stupid that just becouse an exacta pays $95.00 that we the betters will not realize that they took an extra $6.50 give or take from our profits?

Set all take outs at a maximum of 17 % and watch the handles grow..:bang:

The tracks think that, yes. So do I, 'us' being the bettors in general, not you and I. Okay, I, maybe, but not you.
