The question remains, would horseracing still exist without punters or the ability for owners and trainers to bet on their own horses?
Why do you think it's called the game of kings?

No punting = no punters = no TAB = no money for racing.
Only the rich could afford to keep racehorses and punting would be a limited black market affair, not benefiting racing.
