The information is pretty much all there. You just have to take advantage of it.

Why make the bettors jump through hoops to get the info? Wouldn't it be much easier just to show the allocation of all DD bets in equivalent win odds? So if $200,000 is bet on the DD and horse 1 in the 2nd leg has $56,000 of the money bet on it then the equivalent win odds (using a 16% takeout) would be 2-1. Total pool allocation would seem to be a better indicator than a partial pool represented by willpays. this can be done with any horizontal bet putting daylight on the blind pools.
