The above quote has me thinking this could turn out to be a huge can of worms.

As a horseplayer: I want to know what my odds are going in.

I don't want my win mutuel on a longshot diluted because the whales boxed my horse with the favorite in the exacta. (Or boxed my horse with the first and second favorites in the tri.)

.
What is the purpose of this wagering plan other than to cause even more chaos on the odds-board than what we have now? Is this just a prop so the Whales can have a deeper overall pool to swin in? How does the non-whale benefit by the implementation of this new idea?

If they are just inventing new toys for the Whales to play with...why don't they just come out and tell us to find something else to do with our time?
