Retired Racehorses

Recommendations

Info

16 The members of the board should operate in active consultation with stakeholders from areas in which retired racehorses find careers. The funds would be distributed on a per-horse basis according to the records kept on horses leaving the track and to which organization or owner the horses are placed. The Retired Racehorse Fund Advisory Board would be responsible for overseeing the distribution of funds and ensuring that the organizations receiving funding are in good standing with a nationally recognized horse rescue accrediting agency. New York State registered non-profits must abide by and be in good standing with the New York State Attorney General’s Charities Bureau. of Agriculture and Markets would house and maintain the Retired Racehorse Fund account and be responsible for disbursement of funds as directed by the Retired Racehorse Fund Advisory Board. Additionally, the state agency that is responsible for the funding distribution should publicly disclose (i.e. online) what organizations are receiving funds from the Retired Racehorse Fund and the amount on a quarterly basis. The Retired Racehorse Fund should collect and distribute funds based upon a ratio proportionate to the numbers of retired Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds in New York state.

VLT AGENT COMMISSION REVENUE VLTs account for significant revenue to their host locations in the form of Agent Commissions. These funds are “the portion of Net Win paid to the casino operator as compensation for operating the gaming facility. Most operating expenses of the gaming facility are paid from the agent commission (including the horse racing subsidies), with the exception of the gaming floor itself, which is provided by the other vendors and paid for by the Lottery,” according to the Division of Lottery. An examination of the Agent Commissions paid in Fiscal Year 2010/2011 shows a significant amount of revenue going to each facility. 17 AGENT COMMISSIONS IN FY 2010/2011 Yonkers Raceway $180,699,289 Saratoga Casino and Raceway $44,096,540 Finger Lakes Casino and Racetrack $37,041,210 Buffalo Raceway $26,825,257 Monticello Casino and Raceway $24,045,928 Tioga Downs Casino, Racing & Entertainment $20,838,247 Vernon Downs Casino, Hotel, Racing & Entertainment $17,046,125 Batavia Downs Casino $13,472,840 Source: New York State Division of the Lottery NYRA & RESORTS WORLD CASINO NEW YORK CITY Resorts World Casino New York City opened October 28, 2011 at Aqueduct and is expected to generate millions of dollars in revenue for many stakeholders in the industry, including horse owners, breeders, trainers and track operators. Resorts World Casino New York City, as a tenant on state-owned property, should also provide support for after-care and retirement programs. Resorts World Casino New York City receives a 38 percent agent commission on net wins at its Aqueductbased facility. Using its own estimated $500,000,000 in annual revenue, the annual Agent Commission for Resorts World Casino New York City may be estimated at $190,000,000. The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA), which operates the race tracks at Aqueduct, Belmont and Saratoga (flat track), receives 7 percent of revenue from the net win at Resorts World Casino New York City for racing operations and capital expenditures (paid out of the agent commission). Using Resorts World Casino’s $500,000,000 estimate, NYRA will receive approximately $35,000,000 annually.
