Meeting ended with no decision AGAIN! I am not sure what is going on here, but the VRC went from putting their foot down to kicking their shoes off! Colonial Downs seems to be able to do whatever they want without consequences. Next meeting May 22nd 10 am. Not sure what they are going to accomplish then either.
IN RECESS UNTIL 1 pm....
GOES LIVE MONDAY, MAY 19th @ 10:00 a.m. TUNE IN!
Tune into this YouTube Channel for a live broadcast of the Colonial Downs, Va Horsemen and Virginia Racing Commission meeting to find out if Colonial Downs will follow state law and accept what the Virginia Racing Commission has ordered. The Virginia Horsemen, HBPA, has compromised away from a 8 and 7 week request, down to a 5 week contract agreement that Colonial Downs refuses to sign to this point, even though it has been ordered by the Virginia Racing Commission. They will lose their license to operate para mutual wagering in the state of Virginia if they do not sign this contract Monday, May 19th 2014.
