Cloverleaf Standardbred Owners Association President Tom Cooke offered the following comment, “We are very pleased to be working together with our colleagues from MSBA and wish to acknowledge our appreciation for Penn National Gaming and Rosecroft. Penn National has continued to operate Rosecroft under difficult financial situations and their commitment to the Maryland Standardbred horsemen has been fantastic. We are anxious to do our part in helping this partnership continue so Maryland racing thrives.” The 2014 Rosecroft live racing meet will continue through December 13. Horsemen may contact Sharon Roberts or Gina Maybee in the CSOA office with questions or for help at 301-567-9636. Racing applications are available on line or through the CSOA office and should be submitted by August 25th. Important Information concerning the upcoming 2014 Summer-Fall Race Meet at Rosecroft Raceway th Rosecroft is planning to hold qualifiers on September 6 if sufficient numbers of horses are entered to justify them. Entries will be due by noon September 5th. Rosecroft will move to the process of direct deposit for all horsemen’s purse checks commencing with this race meet. Rosecroft has asked the help of CSOA in terms of collecting the appropriate direct deposit forms (and stable rosters) to make certain there are minimal delays in this process. These forms must be received before purse monies can be distributed. Horsemen are encouraged to complete their racing applications and submit them by August 25th. Rosecroft WILL NOT be going to ABC Classification of Horses Rosecroft will now move to the automated computer draw. There will be a 5% purse increase across the board for the 2014 Fall meet. Rosecroft will continue the practice of providing a 15% bonus for Maryland owned, sired/bred, trained and foaled horses. Additionally, Rosecroft will continue to provide a $100 out of competition stipend for horses finishing 6th or worse. Rosecroft will continue the 100% race entry preference policy. Entry preference will be in the following priority: 1. Maryland owned, 2. Maryland sired/bred, 3. Maryland trained, 4. Maryland foaled and 5. Virginia owned (entry preference only, no bonuses). Maryland Bred is defined as the owner of the mare at the time of conception is a Maryland resident. Horses that were not bonus or preference eligible as of July 13, 2014 (60 days from the start of the meet) will not be eligible for a bonus or preference during the entire 2014 Fall meet unless they were (1) claimed or (2) purchased at public auction. This does not mean that horses who are not preference or bonus eligible cannot race at Rosecroft - it means that they will not get a bonus or entry preference. The Maryland Standardbred PAC was established to support legislative issues that could positively impact Maryland Harness Racing. There are approximately 300 PAC's currently registered in Maryland. The Maryland Standardbred PAC is the only one representing the standardbred horsemen in the State. We encourage our members to send a personal check made out to Maryland Standardbred PAC, P.O. Box 671, Brandywine, MD 20613. All contributions are voluntary and helps us make certain that Standardbred voices are heard. New TCO2 Testing Procedures 1) One hour after the finish of a race two tubes of blood will be drawn and be centrifuged. 2) Both samples will be sent to the laboratory for testing. 3) Laboratory will test one tube to determine the TCO2 level in triplicate. 4) If first specimen is in excess of established thresholds on all three runs the second tube of blood will be tested in triplicate as well. 5) If second specimen is in excess of the established threshold on all three runs it will be considered a positive finding. Maryland Racing Commission Unanimously Approves Multiple Medication Violations (MMV) At the June 17, 2014 the Maryland Racing Commission voted unanimously to adopt a Multiple Medication Violation (MMV) point system, as the next step of the Uniform Medication Program. The MMV Point system is going through a process of drafting regulations and the approval of those regulations. Maryland Racing Commission is planning on having the MMV point in place as of January 1, 2015, but points will be accumulated as of January 1, 2014. Every licensed trainer in Maryland started with zero points as of January 1, 2014. The MMV point system is designed to create uniformity within the racing industry and will operate similar to motor vehi- cle’s point system. The industry will be handing out points for drug violations and tracking Maryland trainers and train- ers everywhere with those violations through a national central database maintained by Association of Racing Commis- sioners International. The trainers’ offenses will be track just like the MVA tracks drivers’ records. When too many points are accrued, trainers, like vehicle drivers, will be penalized. Each violation will carry a penalty ranging from 0.5 points for the smallest offense to 6 points for the most egregious. When a trainer has from 3-5.5 points, penalties begin with an additional 30-day suspension. A constant point system of- fender could face penalty of up to 360 days with 11 or more points. The MMV point system is in addition to the current penalty system. Trainers are subject to the established penalties handed out by the MRC for each violation. Penalties for multiple violations will run consecutively with the underlying penalty. If trainers remain clean for a certain amount of time, ranging from 1 to 3 years based on the degree of seriousness and amount of points on their records, they can have their records wiped clean.

  • US Smokefree Casinos and Gambling Facilities
    Defending your right to breathe smokefree air since 1976 U.S. Smokefree Casinos and Gambling Facilities January 1, 2015 State-regulated Gambling Facilities There are at least 510 state-regulated gambling facilities that are required to be 100% smokefree indoors. Of the casinos and other facilities listed below, most are required to be smokefree by state law. Additionally, gambling facilities marked with an * are not required by law to be smokefree, but are smokefree by their own corporate policy. This list does not include all off-track betting (OTB) facilities. Vermont and Wisconsin’s smokefree laws cover state-regulated gambling facilities, but neither state currently has any such facilities. Maine’s smokefree law requires state-regulated gambling facilities opened after July 1, 2003 to be 100% smokefree, but prior facilities may have a smoking room.

  • Standardbreds at The135th Maryland State Fair
    November 2016 Standardbreds at the135th Maryland State Fair. Standardbreds were once again a featured breed in HorseLand. Our booth was setup as an endcap by an entrance. HorseLand saw over 30,0000 walk through its doors in 2016. This was almost twice as much as we saw in 2015. Cloverleaf Standardbred Owners’ Association was present for the entire fair. On Sunday, August 28th a retired Standardbred Fast Back Eddie, participated in the 135th Grand Celebration Parade on the racetrack. Fast Back Eddie, also visited HorseLand on several occasions and while he was there everyone enjoyed Eddie’s temperament. Eddie participated in the Horse Lovers United Standardbred Makeover along with Stormy Stir and A Kut Above. On Monday, August 29th we had our 3rd Annual All Standardbred Show at the Maryland State Fair. Participation was less than expected but a good time was had. On Thursday, September 1—The Horse Lovers United held their Standardbred Makeover Challenge in the show ring. Three horses participated in different disciplines. Cloverleaf Standardbred Owners’ Association put on the intro to Standardbreds. We had a standardbred with sulky going around the ring as we spoke about the history of Standardbreds and the racing opportunities in Maryland. Following the makeover there was a Racing Under Saddle Demo. Next Year’s Maryland State Fair will be held August 24—September 4, 2017—We would like to have more horsemen participate and volunteer. We can’t do this by ourselves. Next Meeting Date: December 14, 2016 The Nominating Committee has nominated the following horsemen to run for Directors in the upcoming election on February 8, 2017.

  • Fiscal and Capacity Requirements
    CONSULTANT SERVICES FOR THE GAMING REGULATORY OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY Area 2: Fiscal and Capacity Requirements October 21, 2013 0 Table of Contents 1 Approach By direction of NH RSA 284-A, the New Hampshire Gaming Regulatory Oversight Authority has directed WhiteSand to prepare a report identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the 2013 NH legislative proposals as compared to the best and most relevant components of the regulatory provisions in the other comparator states. This part of the report addresses fiscal and capacity requirements: WhiteSand has approached this particular task using a formal methodology to determine market demand. We reviewed the specific demographics and other attributes of the gaming jurisdiction to be evaluated. This included, but was not limited to, population, income levels, age distribution, nearby competition and gaming tax rates. We evaluated these factors within ranges of 30, 60 and 90 miles of the proposed gaming facility general location. In order to provide a consistent measurement of demographics within a specific region we use distance radii from the region. Using distance rather than driving time eliminates fluctuations due to drive times, day of week, unpredictable events (e.g., accidents, weather, etc.) and other factors. Distance radii are translatable to drive times in most scenarios and provide more consistent results due to the reduction of unpredictability. Using this information, we then identifed a “Competitive Set” for the proposed gaming facility - other gaming properties to be compared based on similar demographics and characteristics. While the properties identified in the competitive set usually do not provide an exact match, they present enough similarities to evaluate market demand and estimate key financial statistics.
