Note: In 2000, state revenue declined sharply due to statutory changes passed in 1999. These include a flat tax of 1.5%, elimination of HRTA tax, uncashed tickets and breakage to the state, and a pari-mutuel tax credit.

In 2002, thoroughbred purses include $14,280,000 that was paid at the Arlington Park Breeder’s Cup.

In 2003, there was a harness labor dispute totalling 86 days.

* Note that the reimbursement for recapture was not appropriated in 2003. Also, Balmoral/Maywood waived $446,584 of their recapture by contract with their horsemen. ** In addition to the initial $750,000, there was a supplemental funding of $170,000 split evenly by racetracks and purse accounts. What is purse recapture?

Purse recapture is a 1995 provision of the law that allows racetracks to recoup losses on live handle brought on by the authorization of full-card simulcasting of races from other states. Handle on Illinois races as a percentage of total Illinois handle has dropped from 95% in 1994 to 29% in 2003. The recapture amount is 2% of the decrease of Illinois handle on Illinois races from 1994. The recapture monies allocated to the racetracks are deducted from the horsemen’s purse accounts. In 1999, legislation was passed that authorized annual appropriations to the Department of Agriculture for reimbursement to purse accounts equal to the recapture amounts. The appropriation is an annual decision, the racetracks will always receive their monies, either from the State or from the originally intended horsemen’s purse accounts. Below are the annual amounts of purse recapture since 1995, when full card simulcasting was authorized.

These 2003 figures are only for events restricted to Illinois Conceived and Foaled horses (ICF) that are properly regis- tered with the Department of Agriculture, and do not include purses won by ICF horses in open competition. Bonuses awarded to ICF horses winning in open overnites in Illinois pari-mutuel competition are included in above table. Racing was suspended from January 1- March 15, 2003 due to a work stoppage, effecting pari-mutuel totals for that period. Additionally, the final day of the DuQuoin State Fair harness meet was cancelled due to rain. The Illinois-bred stakes races scheduled for that date were rescheduled at Balmoral in September with preference given to horses that were entered at DuQuoin. State monies were available for those events minus stake and entry payments redistributed to horses entered, but not raced, at DuQuoin.
