If the collective handle of players betting through an individual outlet is sophisticated enough:

When settlement date arrives, I'm guessing the track (almost always) receives a disbursement from the bet taker.
I'm guessing the settlement money of (say) TVG or Twinspires looks very different from that of (say) Elite.

I highly doubt this is relevant to the conversation but maybe I am the confused one. Because someone is winning doesn't necessarily mean they have an unfair advantage.
However, you are correct about one thing, I am not involved in settlements.
