Racing Commission approves Instant Racing wagers at tracks Note: Some see this new form of betting as a form of casino gambling. Others see it as a step toward saving Kentucky's huge horse breeding industry. Under new regulations, bettors will be using terminals to bet on races from the past - but they won't know the names of the horses they are betting on. The change in regulations is designed to conform to Attorney General's opinion on this type betting. -CM By Dick Brown News from Commonwealth News Center Wagering on historical horse races will be allowed at licensed Kentucky horse racing tracks under proposed regulations approved today by the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission (KHRC). Commissioners voted to change the language in existing regulations that address definitions applicable to thoroughbred racing, standardbred racing, and quarter horse/appaloosa/Arabian racing. The existing regulations that govern pari-mutuel wagering for those breeds will be replaced by new regulations that address so-called instant racing or wagering on historical races for all three classifications of racing.
