 PLEASE tell me how you would approach this....No disrespect at all...This is one of  the strangest industries in the history of mankind....no one ever makes any money - not the owners, not the trainers, not the track, most definately not the players (as a whole)...I've got partners lined up (literally) if you can tell us how to 
make owning them easier and more cost effective...Each year the cost go up - everything for the total spent at the sales to the day rate...the purses are fairly stagnent, unless you are running at a slots-primed minor track. 
You'd have to increase purses - and the dynamic at play now will not allow it- in general. To your point - the focus must be on brining regular players into the ownership piece of the game at a reasonable level.  DeeTee is a perfect example. Dee Tee times a thousand and you will grow the sport.
