The purpose of this bill is to increase opportunities for West Virginia accredited thoroughbred racehorses at any thoroughbred racetrack that participated in the West Virginia Thoroughbred Development Fund for at least four consecutive years prior to December 31,1992, by adding one West Virginia accredited race per day and having West Virginia accredited races not count in condition eligibility for open races at that thoroughbred racetrack. The economic advantages for passing this bill include increasing value for all accredited West Virginia racehorses. The cost of implementation of this legislation is minimal.
