When it's talked that 'THE SPORT' is dying, generally it is referring to 'HARNESS' racing.
Especially considering this is a 'HARNESS' forum. Still some interesting info. Obviously
it won't be happening 'EVER' at a harness track.[at least in North America]

Except for the Kentucky Derby weekend, the place is very empty. I cannot figure out why all the money is being spent.

Kentucky and Arkansas are recipients of massive funding from historical racing machines
it pays for huge purses, renovations, and whatever else they want
the money they receive from handle is relatively low except for the first weekend in May
