Very few people these Art Wilson, Los Angeles Daily News days have the discretionary cash to plunk down a cool million for a horse, or even tens of thousands of dollars. During the Special Session in June, Senate Demo- crats and Republicans unanimously passed legislation that would have nearly doubled funding for the Ken- tucky Thoroughbred Development Fund, and actually doubled funding for the Kentucky Breeders' Incentive Fund without slots. Our plan would have kept the Ken- tucky Education Excellence Scholarships scholarship program whole and not hurt charitable gaming. It would not have used any General Fund dollars. The House plan would have forked over more than 50 percent of the revenue to the tracks and massively undervalued the license fees the tracks would have had to pay. All businesses are suffering in this economy, yet the tracks insist that they and they alone deserve special treatment. When the House introduced its gambling bill during the 2008 session, committee members were mysteri- ously replaced in order to ensure passage. The 2009 version was heard in a committee that didn't even allow the opposition to testify.

September 26, 1942...The Jockey Club stewards revoked jockey Eddie Arcaro’s license for one year after a dis- play of “rough riding” aboard odds-on favorite Occupa- tion in the Cowdin S. September 19. In the race, Arcaro deliberately drove his horse into another, Breezing Home, knocking jockey Vincent Nodarse into the infield. Nodarse and his mount had crowded Arcaro at the start, almost causing him to be unseated.

September 27, 1894...Aqueduct Racetrack opened its doors. The building was torn down in 1955 and the new Aqueduct was reopened September 14, 1959.

September 27, 1947...Armed, then the world’s leading money-winning Thoroughbred, met 1946 Triple Crown winner Assault in the first $100,000 winner-take-all match race, held at Belmont Park. Armed won easily over a less-than 100 percent Assault.
