People think Slots are a cure all. La. allots the majority of the 'slot money to state bred races. This has little affect on increasing the quality of racing at a venue. Maybe in the long run it will influnce a few more quality breeding operation but very little affect of atracting more quality horses.OK percentage is more favorable for increasing Open races and thus can intice some of the big hitters to escalate there stakes program. This slot money needs to be monitered and lets see what it accomplishes. My cynical way of looking at it is it will be a cash cow for the politicans..
