Heck, I paid $25 to go to a seminar to get a cup of coffee and a donut along with 9 winners for the day.

At Hollywood Park and Santa Anita in the 70's and 80's, my father would religiously purchase the Baedeker and Bob's cards. They were actually cards because they were printed on card 8 x 11 card stock. At the most they contained three contenders a race and some numbers for playing the exacta and double. No analysis, no fair odds, no optimal betting. Those were the good old days.
