The following statement is from Andrea B. Young, President of Sam Houston Race Park:
"We haven't seen the funding agreement being reported and we remain skeptical about the way it has been handled. A decision to provide the agency only three months of funding does not give the Texas racing industry the stability it needs to be successful. No business can survive in that environment. We still believe a full vote by the LBB is necessary. Absent that, we will be right back here in three months.
"As of now, we have not received any notification that we may resume simulcast racing on Wednesday."
