Looking for a good Christmas present?
Standardbred Canada has recently made new pricing for its TrackIt service. $20 a year for SC members is all it takes. The service is impressive, letting you query 125 times a month, to find out what horse raced with what trainer, how a horse did at what track, who is racing who and where, and countless other queries. It is a handicapper and horse owners lifeline to the sport.
I can't think of a more worthwhile gift to the racing fan.

I have a serious problem with the fact nothing has been done to accomodate the PATRONS. There are many who pour as much and more through the windows as an owner spends keeping a horse.
Cant disagree, altho I would submit that standardbredcanada should not be responsible for doing what the entire industry should be doing.
I think stuff like this (paying for data for people to bet) is a big reason why you are seeing the post above on "grassroots movements".
We have forgotten who pays the bills in this business. Truly sad.
