Losing bettors to other sports online gambling , horse racing bettors continue to die off, gambling money now spent on gas ? Tracks close if rain in forecast ..Take your pick

I’m definitely younger then the average harness fan. My betting has gone down more then 90% this year, I typically bet strictly WEG, But with short fields, terrible racing & I’ve never watched suck little racing from there in my life as opposed to this year.

20-30 years ago my average bet was $40-$60. Now, although my net worth has increased maybe 5 fold, my usual bet is $1-$3. I wonder how many other bettors have reduced their betting likewise?

  • Calhoun: Thx I'm leaning to the 5 there.  Those CD/GP full field races look the best on the page. 1/2 length from being a G3 winner.
