Good point. I should have phrased my comment something like, "...looking to expand its customer base....", as 11 tracks and six OTB associations is a fraction of racing's footprint.
I'm of the opinion that this "white paper" will be waved in front of management by proponents as bolstering the argument for purchasing and implementing this product, but I don't see the ROI for it. In a sector that's shrinking, adding cost to promote growth and public trust isn't such a bad idea, but methinks the bean counters will consider it a non-starter.
