The only exposure to horse racing is no longer the back page of the sports section gambling race results, it's the internet.
So allow young fans to continue to be fans of the sport, and of the horses. I don't understand the belittling and insult directed to "only a fan". When people earn enough money, they'll gamble.
I haven't seen much success to be pointed out within the past 50 years promoting horse racing as a great money-making speculative venture. Either in bloodstock or via the windows. See the 1980's pyramid schemes.

Maybe, but when it comes time that they go to college or are old enough to drive and gamble who do you have a better chance of seeing at a track/otb?
