I brought this up a few weeks back by suggesting that a few good marketing companies get nationally known entities involved in putting sponsors on the top tier events. The only set back would be cost VS public interest.

This has been said before. But, the tracks find other nickel and dime ways to support events, and dont feel the need to do this hence the continuum of a declining segment of horse racing. Harness track owners and the supporting USTA have a very narrow mind set, and rather choose to bitch about the sport while bleeding it dry.  Instead of investing real dollars to prop it up.

Most overrated basketball player right behind Earvin Johnson.
They just happened to play the game at the right period in time between other 'superstars'!
