What would be your first 3 interventions to fix this broken game?

I agree with Mike, the effort based on the interested parties is dying off and the current would not likely be drawn in, all efforts would likely be futile.  Worth a try and better than slots and what the fuck the current bs is.

It has to self sustain, no more racino, state money, CAW, so you have to clean it up - on track, off track, everything including the regulatory and supporting organizations, bring it to rock solid integrity, invest a lot to lure the gamblers in - heavy marketing, guaranteed pools, major entertainment pre / post venue / off racing venue.

Zero tolerance peds, race tampering, state of the art testing.

Complete transparency, vet reports, interviewing trainers, drivers pre and post race, they should be part of the analysis and seek to make money through larger purses if the game is truly self sustaining and not be involved in gambling.  No trainer or driver or owner or anyone involved should be allowed to gamble, hard to regulate but it must be made an enforceable rule.  Just like when company's have sweepstakes no employee, family member...

Seriously, stop with the denial that there are actually issues and the industry cannot continue to stay on life support. Remember no one person is going to change anything. It has to be a united front or you will be tossed. And how do you spur the interest of two generations of people who want nothing to do with something like harness racing. I compare it to music, who dictates truly successful artists? Teenagers and twenty somethings. That I give the slimmest of chances. Racing is what racing is.

will not go cheap
they buy back 75% of the mares and let yearlings go if the price is fair
I'm not sure i would call it a "dispersal " more like a divorce
sucks having to pay even 4% just to buy back your own horses

And as far as Jennifer is concerned, when she worked there she worked extremely hard.  Entries ,book work ,claims ,schedule’s ,dealing with owners and plenty of other duties. Her brother and the other assistant trainers went the trips with the horses, I don’t know of any rules that system broke.  And Horseplop rules don’t count

They sent the bookkeeper in to meet Jerr Gural and his regime to reverse the ban for purchasing prohibited banned perfromance enahncers and it worked like a charm.
