Another random thought.....higher takeout tracks take lesser successful handicappers out of the game quicker, as it grinds down their bankrolls down quicker. If those players are not replaced with equally or less skilled handicappers, would this not imply that the remaining pool players will tend to be on the sharper side, thus making it harder for us to win?

Interesting things to think about. I'm definitely not talking about differences to the individual bettor; I'm thinking about structural differences in the overall betting of the race itself.
