Default Fans don't contribute that much to the handle.

They need gamblers not fans.

I would create a bet that is almost guaranteed to have a huge carryover and advertise the life altering amount of money you can win. People will show up to bet "The 7" or whatever and stick around to bet the other races.

Definately work to get rid of the IRS 300-1. The feds may let you slide on losses vs winnings but the state only cares about the wins. "you lost? eh, too bad - pay me"

I agree that the small fields hurt. I won't play a race with less than 8 horses. The "big name" horses can avoid each other and dominate a 4 or 5 horse field for the same money.
