It has been reported that the Manitoba Government has given the Manitoba Jockey Club a brief extension of the existing Video Lottery Terminal deal for Assiniboia Downs which expired on Monday (Feb. 3).

According to a report by the Winnipeg Sun, the Provincial Government has given Assiniboia Downs an extension on the current deal until Thursday, February 13.

The article states that a court injunction date regarding the matter is scheduled for February 13.

It was reported last week that the MJC had rejected a new VLT revenue proposal that the Manitoba Government had previously presented to the jockey club.

The MJC operates live racing at Assiniboia.
