@WaddleandSilvy @DriveToyota They have overanalyzed into mediocrity.

[Robert Donati @Chumsmo]

@WaddleandSilvy @DriveToyota This is what you get when data nerds run your organization.

[Robert Donati @Chumsmo]

@JesseRogersESPN This is all on Jed. His past their prime FAs, bargain bin pitchers with injury history, drafted pitchers with previous arm injuries, and overrated manager. PCA looks like all we have to show from the WS team dump.

[Robert Donati @Chumsmo]

@SamOlbur A listless group of automatons (except for PCA) that follows the drab personalities of the manager and GM/President. They have zero spark plugs. Pull a Madden and send in the clowns for a day!

@DOM_Frederic @SamOlbur But we have a great defense right?

🚨 THE JOCKEY CLUB’S DATA MONOPOLY IS SLOWLY KILLING HORSE RACING 🚨

DAY 113 since The Jockey Club published its ill-advised open letter hit piece attacking Mike Repole, and while the industry burns, leadership still refuses to address one of the biggest problems suffocating growth:

THE LOCKDOWN OF RACING DATA AND VIDEO FEEDS.

Every major sport in America figured this out YEARS ago.

The NFL opened up data.
The NBA opened up data.
MLB opened up data.
The NHL opened up data.

And what happened?

EXPLOSIVE growth in:
• Sports betting
• Fantasy sports
• Streaming
• Fan engagement
• Live betting
• Analytics
• Mobile apps
• Media distribution
• Younger audiences

Meanwhile horse racing still operates like it’s 1985.

And now the sport is paying the price.

An aging fan base.
Declining visibility.
Stagnant innovation.
And leadership completely unprepared for the modern gambling economy.

The statistics are brutal:

• Sports betting is projected to grow from roughly $100 BILLION globally in 2024 to nearly $187 BILLION by 2030.

• Sports bettors are significantly MORE likely to regularly watch games and engage with live broadcasts.

• Live/in-game betting now represents MORE THAN HALF of betting handle for many sportsbooks.

• Sports streaming subscriptions exploded from 4% of U.S. internet households in 2019 to 38% today.

Why?

Because modern sports EMBRACED access.

Horse racing RESTRICTED it.

And here’s the bigger question nobody wants to answer:

WHY NOT OPEN UP THE LIVE RACING FEEDS THEMSELVES?

Why should only a select few companies control distribution?

Why shouldn’t innovators, developers, streaming platforms, startups, and independent media companies have fair access to horse racing video feeds and data?

Imagine if horse racing actually embraced modern distribution:
• Multiple streaming platforms
• Independent race coverage
• Fantasy racing apps
• Micro-betting products
• AI handicapping tools
• Interactive broadcasts
• Watch-and-bet integrations
• Mobile-first wagering
• Real-time analytics
• Younger audiences finally engaging with the sport

Instead, the same gatekeepers continue protecting outdated business models while the industry shrinks in front of everyone’s eyes.

And now with FanDuel TV walking away from full-time racing coverage…

Where is the emergency response plan?

Where is the innovation strategy?

Where is the modern distribution model?

Where is the urgency?

The data and feeds belong to HORSE RACING.

Not to a handful of entrenched organizations protecting power, control, and old revenue streams while the sport falls further behind every year.

Open the feeds.
Open the data.
Open the sport.

Or keep choking its future.

REFORM IS COMING! REPOST AND SPEAK OUT.

I respect @drdrew and have have spent well over $1000 for products from his company @twc_health, but their customer service is the absolute worst. The delivery company has admitted to fault and I still can't get a refund or redelivery from the company w/o a police report. Insane!

[TK Kuegler @TKKuegler]

Nice to get a maiden win!
3 YO Gogo's Mojo came from last-to-first at CT to get the victory in going away fashion for @WasabiStables
