If I go to the races they get $200 on average.
One is free and the other is charging, you would think its reversed on the who.

Well said. Let's face it horseplayers are portrayed as degenerate gamblers by the media and the industry is treating us like addicts. Increasing the rates for us to get our fix chasing the big score (high) . The casinos understand that giving perks and low takeout games will get more folks in the door and churning that money over and over until it is gone.
To me it seems like the horse racing industry has too many old execs unable to grasp that it is no longer the 1960's and 70's
