It's the 21st-century version of our favorite game. We have no idea as we handicap the night before, what the fields will look like at race-time. And we don't know as we place our wagers, what the eventual payoff will be...should we be fortunate enough to hold a winning ticket.

And the industry wonders why our interest in the game is in a perpetual state of decline.
