Bill > HB347

This bill modifies Kentucky's laws regarding horse race wagering by redefining "receiving track" and "simulcast facility" to include wagering on races that have already occurred, and it allows for wagering on races previously run at simulcast facilities. It also establishes a minimum wager of ten cents ($0.10) at simulcast facilities. A key change allows a licensed track to transfer its right to establish one simulcast facility to another entity, with the stipulation that no simulcast facility can be established within 40 miles of a licensed track, a reduction from the previous 50-mile radius. Furthermore, the bill mandates that 13.5% of the commission generated at a simulcast facility must be retained by the track or person that owns the simulcast facility for expenses.
