There's been no free market for over 20 years. I started this post knowing it would hit a raw nerve with those closely aligned with their home-track. You think I'm not aware that it's like "family" in most smaller market tracks? I've been waiting patiently for things to sort themselves out "naturally" for years, but it just keeps getting worse and worse. Please excuse my bluntness in my posts, but know this........without the bettor, there is no horse racing and the owners can go collect their "ribbons" when they win. It's the BETTOR that makes this game, and if we don't take control of the game NOW, it won't exist for anyone.......
