Well the original point of my post was that the current model is putting the cart before the horse.

That said, I can see your point that the original draw for the potential new fan is going to be the exciting stakes horse, but if a track provided the races before and after a particular stake, don't you think it is possible that someone is going to see that a) non-stakes races can be just as exciting b) money can be made in those races too?

I don't mean this to sound as if this is the cure to racing, but to get back to the topic of how racing is using technology correctly, I think this is an area in which they fail for the most part. Though improvements have been made.
