Major issue with article edit

Besides most of this article turning into an undersourced list of news blurbs, and that it's entirely about the US when casinos at racetracks exist in other countries too, the biggest problem about this article is that it's little more than a dictionary definition. To show some notability beyond the basic "combination casino-racetrack" that USB the definition, the article needs to discuss the trends in both the horseracing industry and the casino industry raised by their introduction. But that analysis must summarize existing analysis sourced to reliable sources, not make original conclusions. It also can't be just about the US. And it needs to be supported with more than just news blurbs. The quote from Joe Bob Briggs begins that process, but why are we quoting a movie reviewer with a comedy persona about casinos?!? oknazevad (talk) 21:19, 19 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
