I understand that, but the biggest problem smaller tracks face now is that the pools are too small to be bet seriously. That is not going to change any time soon. There is at least hope that consolidation could make gamblers take notice as field size and handle grows. Right now all you have is a bunch of tracks doing the bare minimum to get subsidized. That is killing the game overall in my opinion.
