Here is an idea - schedule for New Year's Day - a switch your action to a contest.

If everybody played a contest instead of the races, I would think that would send a message plus the gambler doesn't have to not gamble to do it. The biggest problem is that it might be too successful - if everybody makes the switch on a permanent basis.

Btw, this would have the positive side effect on your 2026 taxes - there is no question that the tax you will owe on your 2026 gambling will go down if you play a contest instead of betting in the pari mutuel.

FAIR DISCLOSURE - Starting Jan 1, 2026, I personally am going to try to move all of my action to contests.
