I am sorry to say this but people really don't like the sport and it's very poor reputation will keep all new investors away.

Above is true but to add the reality is ( and I say this as a former horseman who took his kids to the track on occasion) that my adult kids and their friends have zero interest in harness racing.. It’s not gonna change no matter what.. they don’t look at it as a sport and see no excitement in it… their generation shows some interest in T-Bred triple crown racing but that’s where it ends .. Unless The Kardashians start tweeting and Tik Toking that they are hanging out at harness tracks and it’s cool , the younger generations could care less and wouldn’t even notice if harness racing ceased to exist , no different than a tree falling down in the forest .. they just don’t care.. those of us around who still enjoy it have to just accept it for what it is ..

Agree, too many other distractions for the younger generations. Very few come to watch the races.

USTA doesn't care!  Why do we keep discussing this?  They are interested in keep their cushy little jobs and protecting the ass kissers!  They are a completely worthless organization!
