Why would I want to share?

That would mean less money for me.

pay your tax beforehand and go each way it worked for me - I had friends in the racing game and won some dough, but am not a gambler, although I will bet on myself - I am a sure bet.

it depends, you can ask to hold the price when you place the bet (e.g. if the horse is 6/1 at the time you make your bet then you can get that price). but prices change all the time right up until the race starts so its a bit of a gamble within a gamble!!!
