What I am saying is that daily, the public gambles on horses that have tons of history, and the public doesn't know about any of it. I do wish we did. But I'm not very sure most would know what to do with that information, anyway.
Well, for starters, I don't think the public would be duped any longer into blaming the track surface every time a horse breaks down.
