Jerry,
You can play the Pegasus from your desk. Check the rules. No need to go to the track but you gotta pay an entry fee which doesn't make sense to me given the track and ADW are owned by Stronach. You have no excuse for not playing as we argued unless the entry fee is too high for you. But I've seen you play in the BCBC and the BCBC entry fee is way higher so take a swing as the card should be loaded with quality racehorses to choose from or avoid supporting one of the best cash tournaments on the planet because of expenses and time.

As you know , I will do almost anything for this game as I dedicated 4 years of my life lobbying for the betting exchange on behalf of Betfair and leading the TVG-Betfair acquisition along with Greg Nichols for $50M. Thanks for the kind words and respect. The contests (as we argued) could lure gamblers from other arenas such as fantasy sports and poker IF the tournament structure is simple, televised one way or another to stroke egos, and enjoyable i.e. set up to allow betting with friends. Racing can no longer sit on an island and it must consider making the tournaments more attractive to 'potential' horseplayers. If that means creating all in moments, then let's do it. If that means creating lineups with your favorite horses on the day like in fantasy football with weighted salaries (ie odds), then let's do that too. If the tournament directors start forcing players to bet too many races a day with arbitrary minimums and limiting the social aspect of betting together due to collusion fears, we will be headed for a lonely boring game amongst ourselves. The only way to answer your question Jerry is to experiment over a 3-5 year plan and I will do my best to start capturing the stories when I do attend.
