Two questions, and very likely you've answered them in the past.
1) How many teams do you feel are out there that you would classify as whales?
2) Are any of them proactive in the support of the industry, or are they just very, very, very big leaches disguised as whales? It would seem the models they have so laboriously constructed wouldn't work in any other endeavor, so the health of the over all horse racing industry would seem of some import to them.
Thanks in advance.

If someone bets several hundred-million dollars a year at the races, then he is supporting the industry enough...even if he is doing it with a 50% discount on the takeout. Since these whales are actually WINNING the money that they make...you can hardly call them "leeches"...IMO.
