Remember CDI is doing quite well despite the racetrack issues.

I think you're close to the mark on this. They know it will hurt the racing, and don't care. If it demonstrably hurts the racing and forces the issue on casinos, so much the better for them. And someday they will wholly get out of racing once their slots are on every CDI property. Stranger things have happened in the business world.
