I think people do care.

I think there’s no money to fix anything.

A good portion of the industry is surviving on casino money. Trainers and owners are dropping like flies. Fewer horses are being bred.

The economics of the sport as currently constructed don’t work. Either a ton of new money has to come in or a ton of costs have to be taken out. The industry has to get a point where there is “free cash” to address problems. IMO that’s the only hope for a real sustainable turnaround. Right now it’s a sick patient that’s slowly deteriorating. It needs major surgery.
