Horse Racing. Why is it covered so extensively as a 'Sport' now?

I mean, its not *really* a sport is it?
It exists purely for people to gamble. No one watches it for the sheer drama and contest do they?

You don't wake up one morning thinking, "I hope Frankie f**king hammers that scum AP McCoy today" do you?

Its not sport is it? If you banned betting who'd give a s**t about horse racing?
