Default American Horseracing?

I know it is a weird question, but....Are there any American off track betting places where I could watch and bet on American horseracing? My parents have racehorses and run quite frequently at the big tracks in the US, and though I can watch them online, I would like to be able to bet on the races. Are there people into horseracing here? Thanks!

The only horse racing you can see here is either local or from Comandante in Puerto Rico.
The Triple Crown and the other series (Breeders Cup) at the end of the year are on the major channels. And there is some horse racing on ESPN. Check their schedules..

You might be able to bet American tracks at Five Star in both Santiago and SD. You cannot watch the races though. Here is the phone number in Santiago. They speak English. You can tell them what you want.
