Next race from a different part of the track..."NBC offers $100 voucher for the exacta ?" ...Then "Who's got some show bets ? $50 if your ticket cashes." ...etc....seems like fun to me.

Didn't they give a give 10,000 grand to bet with last year? That wasn't enough?
I think that many people will turn off a guy like Andy Beyer just because they don't know who he is. Are they really going to care that Morty from Cleveland likes the 2 in the upcoming race? I'm thinking no.
Now if you said that they would have someone discussing/demonstrating different types of wagers (i.e. pick 3's-pick 4's) and how much money they could win, maybe that would intrest a few people that they might want to eventually jump into the water.
