List of Issues

The intention of a "List of Racing Issues" is to collect and document issues within the horse racing industry - anything at all that can be improved should be included.

The issues can be discussed, debated, clarified, and simplified online by posting comments to the original issue and everything will be kept in the comment log as archived history so please don't post rude comments. This will allow us all to better understand the issues that the racing industry faces WITHOUT the added pressure of trying to fix them.

Later when some change is being considered, we can point back to this list and say "it fixes that, that, that, and that" (referring to items on our list of issues). Each issue will have a discussion log (history) so we won't need to rehash the details over and over again - it'll be written done.

So if you have an issue - ANY ISSUE AT ALL - describe it in an email to MaurieDanko@gmail.com and i'll post it here for others to add comments to. Please tell your friends about this effort and lets generate some interesting content.

Thanks MaurieDanko@gmail.com

The Fair Start

A horse race is officially timed from the start line to the finish line - and yet if a horse breaks before the official start line all those who bet on him are doomed before the race even started. Racing currently has a line, called the "fair start" line, but from experience, i can tell you that when the horse you bet on breaks and is eliminated BEFORE the race is even started ---- it doesn't FEEL like a fair start.
