Save the Horse Racing and Breeding Industry In Kentucky

Published by Save The Horses on Oct 27, 2009

We, the undersigned, fully support the effort to bring video lottery terminals to Kentucky racetracks. Allowing video lottery terminals at the tracks will increase revenue for the horse racing and breeding industry, non-race breeds, and the state of Kentucky.

We petition the General Assembly to respond to our urgent need and save Kentucky’s racing and breeding industry by passing the slot's bill in January that Governor Beshear backed and the state House approved in June 09.

It is our hope by uniting as an industry, it will only assist to safeguard our title as HORSE CAPITAL OF THE WORLD. This will enhance inbound tourism and business and strengthen the state as we prepare for our prestigious guests: the top horses in the world, their owners, and nearly three quarters of a million fans of all breeds in the world for the FEI World Equestrian Games in 2010.
