If there is a boycott, it shouldn't be just a few bets, or just Keeneland. It should be for all USA racing for some meaningful period of time. There shouldn't be any built-in excuses for handle shifting to other wagers or tracks. Just suggest that everyone take a break from the game for a few weeks. The crappy product is everywhere.
Perhaps HANA could put out a guide for giving up horse racing, with tables showing the rake for better alternatives. There could be sections on poker or other sports wagering as alternatives. Or suggesting HK or Australian racing. Maybe re-purposing your binoculars for bird watching.
The industry has been spitting in the eyes of horseplayers for years. It's time to start spitting back.
