We seem to be having the same dreams, Barry...but sadly, we keep waking up.
I would like to add one more item to your wish list though...if you would allow me to:
It was 1993 when Andy Beyer revealed that the technology was already in place for taking the timing of these horse races out of the dark ages and into modern times.
Micro chips would be attached to the bridles of the horses, which would trigger sensors placed at the different points of call...and would finally provide the player with accurate fractional times for every horse in the race.
Being a pace handicapper myself...I got excited at the prospect of this idea. But it's been over 18 years now...and I am losing hope...
Best regards,
Gus.
