Obviously there are more betting shenanigans in horse racing, but on the other hand there is an aspect of point spreads that is analogous, which is that teams aren't supposed to try to beat the spread and can be punished for caring about it, whereas in horse racing, it is the opposite- participants can be punished for not trying hard on behalf of the people who bet their horses.
1. No self-respecting bookie would ever refuse a customer's wager. If you are a proven winning player, then the bookie may even offer you a "bonus" for betting with him...because then he can use your sound betting knowledge to his own advantage.

2. Yes...sports are contested on the weekdays. But they don't obligate you to immerse yourself in them for at least four hours during the time of day when you need to show up at your job.

3. If we can't even agree that our professional sports are more "honest" than the horse races are...then the two of us really have nothing more to talk about.
