Holy sh*t...someone help me, please. I am breaking down my year, track by track.

On the bright side, I turned a profit at Fraser Downs this year.

A $1.28 ROI playing harness races is a pretty telling indication that you shouldn't be betting them.

It's a slightly higher ROI than buying scratch-off lotto tickets...and no one hits for a $1 millon playing harness like my now-broke former neighbor did playing a $20 scratch-off.

Only 3 tracks I turned any kind of significant profit were Tampa, Santa Anita and Fairgrounds. Gulfstream was just about a break even.
