Horse Racing will never be big again. People rather watch Celebrity Poker than horse racing. The sport ruined itself though with drugs and constant racing on a million tracks. Go to a track and sit outside and only bet that track and you will be bored out of your mind.

I'm never bored at a track. Once one race is run, I'm studying the PPs for the next one

Most people do that way in advance, not between races. Anyway, they already have you, they need new people and the other sports are getting them.

I do study them in advance, but then I go over them again and again when I am actually at the OTB or track. Like tonight, I'll be going over and over Belmont card PPs until I get a headache, and then tomorrow I'll chat with some folks at the OTB and study some more in between the races about the next race coming up. Besides, it is wise never to make your final bets until you have watched how they look while being saddled and in the post parade.

And you're right, they have me for life.
