According to a report on Kentucky.com, another push for slots at racetracks in the state of Kentucky is expected to come during the next legislative session.

The legislation, to be filed Rep. Greg Stumbo, calls for $15 - $20 million from VLTs to be infused into horse racing purses in the state.

"I'm convinced if we don't do something, we're going to lose our horse industry," Stumbo was quoted as saying. "We may end up with just two tracks."

"We are obviously hopeful the legislature is willing to improve our competitive position as it relates to surrounding states," Patrick Neely, spokesman for the Kentucky Equine Education Project, which has lobbied for expanded gambling, was quoted as saying. "The governor's task force made it perfectly clear: The surrounding states are doing all they can to take our horses."
