Keeping Pace: The New York Times Cherry-Picks On Horse Racing, Again

The truth in the article is that our current customer is the horse bettor and our customer base is dying. What has led to this? Our industry does not have an entity that has authority or the incentive to be hyper-focused on serving our horse-betting customers and identifying and creating new ones.

I have a question: do we want the health of our industry to rely on income from gaming products that have little to do with horse racing? If so, we are in pretty good shape as long as our current financial arrangements stay in place in each state. If those financial arrangements start to go away, what will happen?

How would you grade Horse Racing Alberta on their serving our horse-betting customers and identifying and creating new ones.

Is Horse Racing Alberta more interested in serving our horse-betting customers and identifying and creating new ones or ensuring that our current financial arrangements stay in place in Alberta. 

I’ll stop wearing black when they make a darker colour.
