My aunt plays by names on the very rare occassion that she comes to the OTB with me. She doesn't know enough about the racing to play any other way... She loves the horses though.

my wife likes the races, live or OTB and she understands more than she lets on. she knows how to read the program and still plays any and all gray horses and sometimes plays names.
